Wow that's good cant wait, Well I guess I have to wait, Hurry up Orion, LOL.
Hajimoto How long did it take you to set it up , Do the filming and edit it? Just curious, As I have no idea what I am getting into,,,,

I would like to respond to this question in two distinctive parts.
Part #1 How long did it take you to set it up? The adjustment of the scope's diopter and making sure camera concentricity is spot on is the most critical part of the setup in order to achieve the intended result. This setup includes connection and location of the clamp, introduction of the Orion-Cam to the optic, diopter adjustments, Orion-Cam eye relief determination, Rotational adjustments and centering, and proper camera setup. Once the unit is concentric and plumb the fine adjusting for the most superior image can begin. Like Orion, I use a large external computer monitor to achieve the best focus and alignment I can achieve which is why I modify all my camera cases to allow the tethered assemble to be removed from the case and easily reintroduced without the need to plug or unplug anything. This opening which I cut on both sides of the camera case allows for very easy camera removal as you are able to positively engage the sides of the camera house with your forefinger and thumb. This entire process for initial installation and setup can take less than an hour but will never need to be repeated because once the assembly is properly set up it can be removed from the clamp system and reintroduced in seconds.
Part #2 Do the filming and edit it? The actual capturing of the action through a properly configured and setup Orion-Cam means you power on the camera, aim at the target, focus the scope, press the record button, take the shot, and press the record button again. This will capture and produce a complete digital copy of the events that just took place through the optic. At this point, the raw horizontally reversed image can simply be shared directly or uploaded to your favorite video repository sites like YouTube, Vimeo, Google Photos, and others and simply share the link with your intended audience.
Editing can be as simple as importing the image into your video editing software, horizontally flip the image so things are not reversed, center the image and correct any out of rotation capture issues, and output the edited video. There are many free or open source video editing software applications to accomplish this.
Creative Editing is where you as an individual can spend hours on hours adding text, photos, camera panning effects, music, narration, slow motion, and on and on and on but all of these enhancements will require a video editor and there are some absolutely amazing free to use editors or digital workstations that can be as complex as DaVinci Resolve 17 or as simple as the free video editor that every Windows 10 based computer comes with called Video Editor. This editor will allow you to add music, text, transitions, and so much more without the substantial learning curve associated with a professional-level digital workstation application.

The rabbit hole of creative options is as deep as any one person wants to go and typically the more complicated the video effect or technique desired means a more robust application is needed to achieve it.
I hope this helps
