My parents owned a Nikon 35mm manual focus camera when I was growing up.
I bought an adapter to hook it up to my 10" F6 dob and the shots of the moon turned out great when I was 16. I'm now 35 and still own the adapter and telescope but not the camera body. Can any of you recomend a Nikon Camera body to use for this? Do I need to provide more details for help? Let me know. I was looking on e-bay and used F3 camera bodies seem reasonably priced. I've never liked autofocus cameras and see no need for one in astrophotography (if I'm wrong please educate me).
