Great price on Skywatcher

Hi there. This is my first post of many I hope.
I have just bought a Skywatcher 30cm goto Dobsonian from NVT.com.au in Perth for the amazing price of $2199 plus $78 delivery to Adelaide (ex Sydney).
I shopped around locally and on the internet but this was easily the best price plus the service was brilliant.
I have it all set up and collimated but of course it's cloudy tonight grrrr
Still I have the scope for ever so I'm sure there will be many nights of great viewing.
I must also say what a great site this is and how helpful and friendly everyone is.

Congrats on the new purchase! you've chosen a great dob! good for visual and the tracking is good enough to allow a bit of photography. I've got the same, http://www.flickr.com/photos/80336656@N07/ you might find a bit of inspiration, I used a canon dslr.

Clear skies and good luck

Rusty

Thanks Cathy and Rusty

Wow, those are great pics Rusty

I have a Canon dslr too and once I've explored the sky I'll try to take a few pics too.
