You may be surprised to know that in the 40+ years I've been doing astronomy and astrophotography, I've never ever bought a Newtonian. I've built a lot, maybe a dozen but never bought a new one complete. So why did I start now? Cos I'm lazy, it's F4 and I don't think I can build one as cheap these days anyway.
Keep an eye out in the photography forums for pics taken through it.
