Just rekindled my interest in astronomy, my past stint was a out 10 years ago. You got a healthy budget, I'd suggest an EQ mount with Goto, and a relatively small scope, 6" or smaller for Mak or Newt, or a 4" or smaller refractor. With that budget, I'd also suggest quality over aperture and size, especially. Given you have an interest in astro photo. Actual suggestions, SW ED80 with EQ5, 127/150 Mak on EQ5. Hope it helps. I started with a WO Megrez 80SD and a EQ5 mount (not goto, but motorised).
