Shannon, you are correct, but I use an astrovideo camera in place of an eye piece. The color CCD chip takes the live (or almost live) image and puts it on a high resolution screen, where I can study and sketch the object. You could see color in some objects with a lot of aperture (typically over 20 inches) but nothing compared to using one of these little video cameras. We went this way rather than get expensive EPs and buy lots of aperture. In addition, my wife and I have both seeing limitations and some physical issues, so this provides a way to sit together and study/sketch without sacrificing the ability to really observe in detail. If interested, you can go to the video forum and see some discussion among the users of this particular video camera as well as some B&W versions.
