Faint Comets & DSLR   Message List

Hello. Well my TV127is has been sent back to the maker to correct the optics
which have been off I think sence I bought the scope. This has cause me to only
be able to use 1/2 of the chip when imaging. Very strange. In the time untill
it returns I am setting a DSLR on the mount. I have a 35/70 zoom and a 100/300
zoom lense. Can anyone give opinion of which or what power to use if I were to
search for or images faint comets now known or unknown? I have never searched
for new object but there could be a green smudge show up. Any input on time of
exp., power of lense used problems to look for, anything.
Contact on list or in private.
Thanks
Mike H.
