am in need of a small compact digital camera, and the Pentax S50 seems a good 5 million pixel camera at about £170 ,

but would also like to try it with digiscoping-
is anyone going to tell me that it WONT work before I buy it? (have also considered the Canon powershot S50/S60, but it's about £250)
can anyone point me towards a suitable adapter for an opticron telescope? for example, are there any cheap adapters just to try it out,
and are there any which will easily move the camera out of the way so the scope can be used normally?

The canon A95 is mentioned as a camera (maybe a little larger) that will work. Otherwise look at the Contax/Kyocera lines of 3-4 mp cameras.
