I have sometimes used my 400D to digiscope, using a 50mm lens attached to a swaroski 80mm HD scope using a DCA (I think I have the name right - it's a tube adapter from swaroski that fits around the eyepiece and screws onto the filter thread of the lens.)
I dont have any examples to hand, but by using MF and a cable release, did get some reasonable images. I tend to use the 500mm prime +/- TCs for birding so have never really perfected the digiscoping technique.
