It works!! I have only done it a couple times with a Pro Dob MallinCAM using a modestly prices little zoom lens. Focus is a bit tricky (mine is manual and pretty coarse) but it delivered a nice wide field. I think others have done it also for education outreach things but also to see parts of the Milky Way in a supercharged fashion.
