Hi there, I'm also after a first scope and have been looking at a SkyWatcher 8" Dobsonian Telescope $600ish or a SkyWatcher 102/1300 EQ2 Maksutov Cassegrain Telescope at $500ish (when on sale).
I'd like to check out the planets and see what ever I can in space.
Obviously I would like the best scope within my budget. Does either of these scopes have a distinct advantage over the other - sky wise? Or is there something even better out there that fits my budget?
thanks in advance,
glanto .....already lost not yet in space
