I have purchased the ESO 60Da and the manual that came with it is for the 60D.

I have the EOS 60Da and the manual that came with the camera is for the 60 D I need a source in info on how to use the camera specifically for astro photography. I know absolutely nothing about this. My telescope is the Meade RCX 400 16" and I live in Belize in Central America

Edit: Ok, looks like that doesn't really supply any real information. I'd assume the camera works the same as the 60D, but providing information on how to connect various third-party telescopes is kind of outside the scope of Canon documentation.

Totally agree with Skirball on the camera operating exactly the same as the regular 60D. The difference is in it's output which is fine tuned for star gazers.
