Hi all. After a chat with wifey, I think i should take advantage of my local (astropete) shops ability to supply a 5y warranty.
Focuser and Ep's are easy to acquire at any time, but the piece of mind a 5y warranty gives to an electronic/motorised product is priceless( but only a few dollars more than 2nd hand really).
So a NEW scope it will be. I'll research dobsonian applications of Video Assisted Astro before purchase. I just read the stickied thread on AV astro with a cheap cam n tablet, interesting... great for when a few people are around and for self. I can easily wait 1 or 3 minutes for an autostack of quick exposure's to show more detail. Its a frankenfoto in real time, at the scope so to speak. And you can pop an ep back in anytime, i think?
So thanks all, if you have a link to some primetive dob av or live capture, drob it below and I'll give it a read too.
Cheers, clear skies.
