Web Mister--Usually they take time lapse shots.
Supposed to be some software out there that you can use to keep the telescope aligned on the spot you are photographing using your PC.
I looked at the moon through a scope a fellow had that was supposed to be very big and expensive. 32 or 36 inch mirror as I recall. Saturn was a tiny dot with a few much smaller dots around it. I was very unimpressed I am sad to say. I thought the view would be much more spectacular.
All the Best
