My baby is a Newtonian as well 
Phones and tablets are surprisingly good for bright sky objects though. In fact I used a cheap phone to shoot M42 and the result blew my mind!

let’s say I had completely no idea how to work it. But I’ve been using it for a week or two now
Yeah, in the beginning I was getting this,

You'll also be able to shoot the ISS!

This is the best one a got so far
Camera: Canon EOS 1200d
Telescope: 700mm achromatic refractor
Next attempt will be with the 114/900 newtonian!
I look forward to seeing what you'll shoot with your new bad boy

.One cool thing is I can align and automatically track over 15000+ different objects!
Definitely better than what I was doing before, just hoping to Hell I was looking in the right place XD
What's the size and brand?
That's an excellent picture!
Here's a picture I took through my Samsung Galaxy S7. It's also M42, Orion's Nebula.
It's a 10-second exposure, through an 8-inch telescope. The telescope mount can track the stars, and the slight lines created by the stars are due to the mount not being fully aligned. If you're wondering, it's a Meade LX90, which is a Schmidt-Cassegrain (compound optics) telescope. The astronomy club just invested in the last equipment we need for deep space astrophotography, and we are super excited to see what we can get!

There’s a gas star or nebula around here you can see if your lucky it’s quite a view , my dad always showed me things with his scope, it had mode to follow there trajectory and all sorts Jazz, I could see the rings of Saturn man! I’m jelus af u got reflector awsome! Maby you will get lucky and figure out what that random radio wave was we nvered heard before ? Like last week like 500thousand miles away or somthing I believe
