Its cheaper then buying expensive cameras.
It takes abit of getting used to looking through the scope and looking back at the paper.
Once thing I found very usefull was to make sure the circle you drew on the paper (at drawing distance) was roughly the same size of the field of view you see through the telescope, it gives you a referance to work off.
I drew M42 back in the early nintees through the clubs 12",
if only I could find it, yet another M42 shot :lol:
