Just bought the Celestron Ultima 80, and looking forward to taking some pics, i just have a basic Hitachi camera at the mo which hasnt let me down, dont like the idea of brackets and screws, is it worth buying another camera so i can fix it straight onto the scope? cheers
 
More of an individual value choice.
You can take some great pics with the brackets-n-screws, if the camera lens isn't too wide,
but going to a DSLR and so on is a big commitment. It comes down to how much you anticipate
using photos, with some added value for showing them around. There's time to take shots,
but also time to tweak them in post-processing. Either a lot of fun or a lot of work, so
it's a personal thing. One thing about the brackets-n-screws: it's not a big commitment.
