Others have answered this but I'd like to add maybe your expectations are all wrong about astrophotography. You don't get whole planets taking up the whole frame even on expensive setups. The example photos on brochures for telescopes can be very misleading. Before you go buying stuff expecting too much you might wnt to look for a local astronomy club night out where you can see for yourself just how small planets are when capturing. Its common for people to have unrealistic expectations with astronomy and can often waste thousands before realising what they expected is impossible.
