Hi Camelo,
I suppose I want to see everything! Planetary detail, other galaxies, nebulae. Is it practical to use s SCT for planetary detail? Would the refractor be able to see as much detail (given the appropriate eyepiece)? I suppose thats my dilemma - will the refractor have the flexibility to see detail to the same degree as the SCT, and is the SCT limited by loss of contrast? Which would be the more versatile of the two?

Thanks
Luke
