I'm wondering too. My viewing will be limited to online, as my retinas don't allow me to see much through 'scopes anymore. So I'm hoping someone will be able to post some pictures to this thread by and by.

You ought to look into something with a CCD and LCD screen. My wife (bless her heart) gave me a Nikon Coolpix 4500 for Christmas. I simply set it on the picnic table pointing it at the sky, set the exposure for 8 seconds and f3.0, and got a picture of Orion with stars down to mag. 6, right on my laptop (OK, I played a little with the image to boost detection of faint stars). I've been playing with a spotting scope, and can get virtually instant pictures of the Galilean satellites. It's staggering how good even comparatively cheap digital cameras are these days.
