Lens
I have 200 mm old slr camera lens from Belarus, it's Zenith with Jupiter 21M 200 mm Focal Length 4.0 . I always want to have telescope so I can watch and observe sky objects , moon and stars , planets maybe. This is just a beginning projects for newbie astronomer like me, I thinks it is a good starts and easy way for me to build not so cheap telescope.
Webcam
You can use any webcam that still works and connected to your laptop. For example you can use Logitech webcam or other brands. Any brand is fine.

Final Construction
This is how the telescope looks like, this is only illustration image courtesy (http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7926/1847/1600/Webcam%20Telescope.jpg)
I took this picture with my blackberry curve 8310, not bad i think. But some of these picture is little bit out of focus. But the point is that you can also build this webcam telescope for experienced as astronomer.
And this is the results, I have taken moon objects in the morning, the moon image not to focus because I hold the lens with my hand, better to use tripod to get better moon image (courtesy https://darkskynotebook.wordpress.com/)
