$10k is honestly a tricky price point...



I have a PMX+ and get very good results both imaging and collecting photometry data ... if I had my time again I would seriously consider an Astro Physics or Planewave L mount... BUT... they are all in the ~$15k or even a bit more range.


Depends if you need remote homing/recovery etc options. Or if you can look at a good Losmandy or Skywatcher etc.


It's hard to imagine starting again without axis encoders at this point. I don't have them now, but I wouldn't buy another serious mount without them in the future.
