beginner astrophoto setup

I have an orion xt 4.5 that I have been using for observing 2 years now, and i love it. It shows me loads of globulars, nebulas, and galaxies. I would love to image these objects.
rummaging through the basement, I found 2 slrs (one a canon pellix, the other a minolta) I was wondering, what a cost effective (under $300) imaging setup would be (that would allow me to use the slrs). I realize that this can be a "big $buck$" hobby and it might be difficult to get good images on that budget.
I am currently looking at the orion 4.5 inch imaging reflector and a eq1 orion mount. I'm not familiar with any optics company other than orion celestron or meade, so if you have a setup that fits the budget aforementioned please describe it.
any advice is greatly appreciated.
