Hi folks,

A friend of mine wants to buy a camera for use on his telescope.

[1] Whats the best OM for astronomy use and are OMs the best bar none?

[2] Whats the best film [professional or not] and film speed.

[3] Is mirror lockup better for astronomy pics [vibrationwise] then mirror prefire example OM 1 vs OM 2000 vs OM3 or 4 [ti]. I get the impression from Garry's lense tests that prefire has less vibration,but with the obnoxious [[[ KA-KLACK ]]] shutter sound of the OM2000, I'm wondering about recomending it to him.???

[4] What other fixtures will he need besides the camera itself and are they easily available?


   Thanks in advance for your info.
