Chris,

Have you or anyone else, ever attempted to get a closeup of a meteor or 
fireballs (HEAD) through a telscope in prime focus using a composite video 
camera for fast framing?

Focus will be somewhat difficult at 20 to 30 miles or so.

It could be aimed outside an active radiant in a motion detection or meteor 
trail mode with automatic tracking mount. Might be interesting...... even 
with the very narrow FOV.

A streat could be split up into a single frame to see what a head looks 
like. I have only black & white capability at this time.
