How can I connect my Nikon D80 with my Meade ETX 70-AT?

Question

I've been looking (not too hard, but looking) for a way to take photographs of the heavens for awhile now....I would love to be able to hook my camera up to my telescope, but I haven't had much luck. All I've seemed to come up with is that I need to buy a T-adapter as well as a T-ring something-or-other but I don't know where to get these. Can someone help me?

If you go to the Meade website, they might have a link for the right connectors.  I know I have found them before.  I'll keep looking, but meanwhile, try here:

That should do ya!  Contact Meade to make sure that will work with your equipment.
