I and my wife have between us spent about £4,000 on my entire astrophotography gear. That's not a lot in the scheme of things. Despite being frugal, I am having loads of fun with this hobby, and although my images are a bit rough, my family and friends think they are great.
I just wanted to post this so that people don't get put off by thinking they can't afford the hobby.
Here are a few rough images that have been taken with this kind of gear:
Fiddling with my scope and captured the Wizard (Added a splash of colour)
The Bubble (Now with 11 3/4 hrs integration)
NGC7331 and Stephan's Quintet
M51 with a cheap telescope on a hot summer's night
Crab nebula
M82
