It's a Canon 50D through a Meade ETX 90. I'm just west of Boston and the seeing is not good.

The ETX seems to be a pretty popular scope . How do you like it for viewing and how do you like the 50D ?

The 50D is terrific, my best camera ever. The ETX is dim but sharp and clear, but I don't like the mount/drive - it's weak and wobbly with the camera on it. I'm thinking of getting a Milapse type setup for piggybacking the Canon.
