Darrell gives some good advice on webcams for Solar System imaging, but in
addition to "quickest and cheapest" we should add "best." All of the good
planetary images are being taken by digital video cameras. If that's your only
interest right now, there's no need to look at CCD cameras.
Next time you use the 1-meter telescope at Pic du Midi, be sure to bring your
Webcam so you can get pictures like these.
