Hi Folks
I will be buying a autoguider shortly,It appears the 'Orion pro shoot' auto guider is the one to buy,so I will get one.
I am told there are two 'versions' one approx $385 and another around $495
The more expensive one has some feature that enables it to take photos of moon and planets,it may have some other reason for being dearer.
Which one should I buy??,I have a Phillps-to-U cam,so I can do planets with that.Is there any benefit to me getting the more expensive Orion?Maybe it might take better images of planets.
I am interested in planet images,so would mind spending extra-if its a big leap over T0-U-CAM.
From what I can gather,most have the $385 version,and it does very,very well.
Also,is there any other places I can buy this item?,prices I have quoted are from Brisbane dealer,some of you may know a cheaper place.
Thank you for help.Chris
