hi all
first day on the forum I've been always interested in astronomy since i was a child,

i dont want purchase something small and then upgrade
i would like to get into photography ,i know i got a lot of studying to do
i got a little property in the hills going to build a astro shed wich ile do
first i want to spend around 2 to 3 grand for the scope and mount
cheers tony

hello tony the beginners equipment that seem to come up time and time again are:
skywatcher mount (heq5 goto)
orion / skywatcher ed 80 (doublet or triplet, f7.5 or f6)
cannon 1000 or 1100d
as others will say after tis is it depends upon what you want to photograph!
this list would be a good start though
