I've had my eye on one of these. It's well reviewed. Put the Ioptron on a decent tripod, put a DSLR on it with a lens in the 50 to 120 mm range, get a cheap intervalometer, and you should be able to get a series of images that you can then put into stacking software to get some nice images. Mastering the stacking software is probably the biggest challenge. The entire setup is easily transportable to a dark sky location. Santa's annual visit is getting closer...
