Hi All - let's go look at the ducks

Newbie bird photographer here trying to work out methods for prime focus using an astro telescope body ("Optical Tube Assembly") as a camera lens for Kx. The connection is not the hard part; figuring out all the camera settings will be (like, you have to read the manual!?? what's up with that?). then there's the post processing...oh, boy. Hoping to set up live view to Mac or iPad to facilitate focusing.

Wishing you clear skies, good birding, and successful photography,

Scott
