Although I'm still planning on purchasing an astro scope for terrestrial photography (sometime in the next month or so), I'm curious as to whether it also makes some sense to invest in a camera body with VR (vibration reduction) or IS (image stabilization) built-in for specific use with the scope. I currently use Canon gear, specifically a 7D and a 40D as well as lenses which do have IS. Although I would use the new scope on a heavy-duty tripod, my experience in outdoor photography has shown me that every little bit of movement will affect the exposure. I suspect that even with higher ISOs, exposure times will still be lower than ideal.
I look forward to hearing your opinions on this... Thanks!
