Hi Deb M35 looks good, more detail and crisper images and just a tad bit of trailing. You are going to put your TV on your G8 correct?? With the shortish FL of the TV, a close polar alignment would be OK, but a refined alignment, of course, is best. On your Rebel is there some provision for a release cable?? If so use 'bulb - B' setting w/ a locking release cable for a longer exposure maybe 1 to 2 minutes, do get a spare battery or two if you're away from a recharge source, I get 2-3 hrs. w/ my D100. I also feel that even though we can do astrophotography w/ our DSLR cameras, the best digital images are from dedicated CCD cameras, again sports car vs. pick up. Keep up the good work, you're looking good. aloha Rob
