Let's see if this'll post...bear in mind that this was done with a new camera...an Olympus 550UZ and I had to go into the digital end of the zoom range so it's not exactly an astronomical image but pretty good for what it is.



The cheap telescope worked remarkably well...it was one of those Meade 60AZ-T's that I picked up at a clearance store for $10 new. I had been eyeballing the 70AZ-T as something that I could toss in with the camping gear and let the kids mess with but this one was there and cheap. Pretty good image and pretty good contrast for an el-cheapo.

Best
