I don't currently have a DSLR or an astro scope -- I cannot be in the early group of participants but I'll be reading this thread to decide what to buy.I was confused by your statement that 100x magnification is obtainable. I take this to be equivalent to the view of a 5000mm lens. Is that really possible with no eyepiece or camera lens?</blockquote>
