How large? I have a 66mm refractor that I'm not using, but I would have to make sure I had the T Ring for it. What DSLR?

Edit: Do you need a mount too? I have a Celestron CG5 Goto equatorial for it, the scope is an Astrotech (Astronomics in Norman house brand).

Edit2: Almost forgot, the mount was tuned by Dr Clay in Arkansaw and tracks pretty darned well.

Ok, here is what I have, an AT-66mm APO Refractor, two 2" diagonals (one 2" slip mount, the other SCT thread) assorted eyepieces (probably $700 or more worth of just those), a Celestron CG-5 ASGT mount and a Stellar Technologies Knife Edge Focuser. There is assorted other stuff, like some rings designed to put the Refractor on a larger telescope that will come with it too. I'll let the mess of it go for $500 just to get it out of my attic and garage. There is a Canon T Ring, but you can get a Nikon one here for $15. The fact that the scope is an Apochromatic (APO) means that you will not get violet edging on the objects you are photographing (Chromatic Aberration)

Edit: You will need one more thing for photography, an adapter like this to go with the T Ring
