It's not going to be a great scope, but it's a start!
To mount a DSLR, the general method is a 1.25" to T-adapter (Technically a T2 mount) + camera specific T-ring, that screws to it and gives flanges. (While Nikon, the first picture is a good one to highlight it: https://www.amazon.com/Gosky-Telescope-T-Adapter-Adapter-Cameras/dp/B013DN90EM )
It will certainly work for the Moon. Saturn will be small and often is photographed by cameras with small pixels to get a good image. (Example comparison vs moon: https://i.imgur.com/QiuZSfK.jpg )
Fortunately, they are quite small, and bright. For settings you tend to want to use the fastest shutter speed to avoid any shakes, but also the lowest ISO you can. (Yes, contradictory goals, go with faster shutter.)
Good thing is that telescope accessories are pretty standardized, so if you get the adapter or better eyepieces, you can use them with other telescopes if this causes you to fall down the rabbit hole.
One thing is also the mount, If it's an equatorial (most common way I've seen Tascos of that spec), you could motorize it to allow tracking for long exposures/widefield. (No promises on how good that will be with the scope, but I use a crappy cheap one (EQ-1) for widefields with camera lenses.)
