I had a small reflector telescope for a few years but not used it much
I recently bought a T-ring adapter that means I can put my old DSLR camera on the telescope. Fairly easy, and the adapter was only £10 off eBay. Loads of tutorials on YouTube, and for pics of stars there is free stacking software that gets surprisingly good results with just a 50 mm lens and a tripod.

This guy gives a good tutorial using just a DSLR and some stacking/photoshopping
Be warned, it's bloody long

Nice. I've got a Tasco telescope from Argos sat somewhere in my parents loft. Haven't had any use out of it since moving to London, but it's definitely planned to get more use if we move back out somewhere with darker skies again.
