The Canon 350D is a 8 Megapixel digital SLR and successor of the "popular" Canon 300D. An in depth review of this camera can be found on dpreview.com . The body of the camera can be directly coupled to my telescopes (Orion 80ED, C8) using a T-adapter.



Beside that I also use two different Canon zoom lenses:


 

Left:

Right:
Canon EF 55-200mm f/4.5-5.6 USM zoom lens.
