Like, a lens with a special adapter or something? Maybe just duct tape the camera to the telescope? 😂

#[3]​ will tell you the setup.

I will tell you where to point.

(Sorry for showing you off #[3]​ 😂🤣) I’m so proud of your work!!!!!!

Once you have the right setup, the software does all the pointing for you!

Honestly, I can respond more soon but being able to film, & take multiple images over the span of hours with a low shutter speed is the key.

Then you blend all the images to formulate an entire image… that’s usually how it’s done for beginners at this, I have found.

You can use a DSLR and a standard lens as a starting point but there is a very deep astrophotography rabbit hold to fall down! This video on YouTube was one of them that got me started on this:
