Hello, I bought this CCD color camera and it's my first CCD  imaging. I am not getting the results I was expecting. I am getting better images from my DSLR. Any tips on starting out to get me started? This is said to be a "one shot" camera and cannot get that good of an image.  Do you still have to do multiple images and stack them to get good images? I am mainly interested in deep space, galaxies and nebula. Anyone out there with experience with this camera? I am using it on a Meade 16 inch LX600 F\8.
Thanks in advance with your help!!  Mark Cunningham
