Glad you figured out the Photoshop info. I'll look forward to see what you can capture through the telescope. For the camera, if you have to shoot anything slower than 1/80th second you might consider a tripod to steady it over the eyepiece. Also instead of plunging the shutter button by hand, consider setting the delayed/10 second timer shutter release as this reduces vibrations noticeably at slower shutter speeds. For recording your art in fine detail, a tripod is essential. I just discovered that my Sony Cybershot has programmed simulated 'rough film grain' or 'added noise texture' in the higher ISO speed settings to emulate the appearance of high speed film grain. I would have dropped it to the lowest 100 ISO and used a tripod at slower shutter speeds for the past year to render fine detail photos of my art, had I known this. I just discovered this in a Sony digital camera review two days ago.

Ready for color pastel sketching yet?
