Hi Copernicus.
to IIS.
You're probably better off asking the question in a new thread, since it's not really related to this thread.
Is the scope mounted on an EQ mount, or is it a dob?
What do you want to take pictures of?
Astrophotography is a whole new ball game, time consuming, frustrating and potentially expensive (to do it right). Are you sure you want to go down that track if you've just started in the hobby?
