Noob question on astrophotography

Hello All,

I am a noob and having trouble hooking up my camera to my scope. I have the following equipment below. I was under the assumption I hook my camera with a lense attached to the scope. Is this correct? Or do I hook up the camera with no lense to the scope? Also is there a way to shoot with my lenses through the eyepiece? If so can you point me to the piece I need for that.

Thanks and I apologize for the noob questions.

I need a telescope to read your text Could you up your font size a tad pls

As far as I am aware (and I know nothing of astro-photography) you mount the camera onto the scope, leaving lenses out of the loop completely.

There are a couple of astro bods about...have a look here: https://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthre​ad.php?t=360619

two ways of doing this,

1. piggyback the camera (with lens) to the scope
2. attach the camera (without lens) using an adapter to the eye piece of the telescope.
