Camera holder purchase

In my research into the Orion binoculars, I watched some videos on astrophotography.  I was aware of the options for SLR adapters and CCD cameras.  But what I wasn’t aware of was the concept of afocal photography.  This is the process of pointing a camera through the eyepiece.  Orion had options for point-and-shot, SLR and iPhone cameras.  I went with the point-and-shot option since I had a Canon camera.  I selected the Orion SteadyPix Deluxe Camera Mount.
