I want to take photos mainly of the Moon, but planets and stars would be cool too, but my camera's lens is larger than the eyepiece of my current telescope, what to buy?
The whole lens measures 35mm and the area through which the photo is actually taken measures 25mm, its a Panasonic Lumix ZS5.
Help!

I am about to purchase a telescope and am trying to better comprehend the eyepieces. For example, a telescope I am considering has included 2 1.25 eyepieces; one is 25mm and the other is 10mm. Which is 'low power' and which is 'high power'? And, what views can be seen with each? What I mean is: which one is better for nebula, clusters and galaxies and which one would be better to view the moon and planets? Thanks!
