"There are some exciting things happening in the field of amateur astronomy. Big toys that the big boys use to use are now trickling down and becoming affordable for us guys. Such things as very high quality cameras that have extreme sensitivity, and you can see things that were only dreamed of a few short years ago, say 10 or 15 years ago. In fact you can get cameras now that will show you things like the horse head nebula on a small telescope, where in years past you had to have a large telescope and be on top of a mountain in some dark remote location. So if you have a small to medium sized telescope, and you're interested in amateur astronomy, and rather than spending the money on a larger telescope, you might want to look into buying one of these cameras such as Mallincam and Stellacams, these devices are amazing, they will show you many, many more things than what you think your telescope is capable of showing you now."
