What's the difference between a big Newt or a small refractor? I find the smaller one is easier to set up, and doesn't vibrate so much in wind. Do you have to take longer exposures with a small refractor? An 8 inch Newt has 7 times the light-gathering power of a 3 inch refractor - does that mean you have to have 7 times the exposure with the smaller scope
