I am wondering if anyone can advise on what digi camera
one should buy for all round use including telescopic and spotting scope
use. I want one that is cost effective but also good quality and
what adapters are needed for scope attachment. I would think that
4 mega pixel minimum is a good start for less than 600 US.

Thanks for your support.

In the U.S. at least, you can now get the Canon 300D for around $700 ($800 for
the kit, less $100 rebate). If that's not out of your range, I'd seriously
consider it. The camera performance is better than just about anything else out
there, better than 35mm film for conventional photography, and with the
removable lenses and low noise very good for astroimaging.
