We just got a new camera today, an Olympus SP-570UZ, looks like this:

Now, it's not DSLR, so you can't put any lenses on it, but I was just wondering if they make T-Rings for a camera like this.
I want to be able to mount my camera on my telescope to take some cool moon photos.

check with the telescope manufacturer and see if there is anything of the sort?

I found this, but I'm sure it only works with DSLRs

Says it works with 35mm SLR

And this, for a 35mm Olympus camera

$300. We weren't going to spend over $700 on a DSLR. We aren't big camera buffs, we just needed an upgrade.
Plus all the money we need to spend on different lenses.
