I have a cheap Australian Geographic Newtonian, 150mm x 750mm, It has a 1.25 inch single speed focuser and a few basic eyepieces with a 2x Barlow, I have a Nikon crop sensor D7200 1.5x crop I have the adapter Togo intobayonet of camel and it is threaded to fit the Barlow, also i have a smaller threaded tube/ ring 1.25 inch.
I am looking at buying a skywatcher ed 100 doublet with a HEQ5PRO mount, I would use the Refractor fo moon and planets and the reflector for clusters and nebulae, I am just curious to know if it is worth adapting for prime focus or just use the Barlow setup, I would update the focuser to a dual two inch to utilise the both scopes eyepieces

Currently I can use the scope with the Barlow, but my star adventurer is not really up to the weight, so for tracking i will go with the HEQ5PRO and should be fine for both scopes separately of course
