Just trying to get a feel for all the options available. A dob is easy to use, easy to move, etc... I do not have a permanent place for a scope, so I need to move it in and out all the time. I managed this with a 10 inch dob fine for many years, but its focal length (1400mm) made it too large to fit in the car. I am wanting to get another scope mainly for visual observing but would like to have the option for imaging later down the track. If a derotator works fine, then maybe a 10 or 12 inch collapsible could be an option. Otherwise, I would consider a 200mm reflector on a HEQ5 Pro. Just need to find the right balance of portability, ease of setup, visual pleasure and feasibility of imaging.
