NEQ5pro vs CGEM
I'm sure this has come up before.
I've exhausted the capabilities of my Celestron Nexstar 6SE as far as imaging goes, and I can get the occasional good 40s exposure (it takes about 20 images to get a good one).
I'm saving my pennies for an EQ mount next year, and I was hoping to get peoples opinions between the NEQ5pro and CGEM. Both are the same price roughly. I have a soft spot for Celestron gear, and I know 2 people with NEQs and they both had motherboard failures.
Any suggestions or experiences with either?
I'm hoping to do better imaging with just the mount for starters (guiding will have to wait). Will I be able to get maybe 1min exposures reliably with just the mount? And I being optimistic?
Advice would be appreciated. Please don't recommend anything else. I can't afford it. Thanks.
