I dont currently have a budget at the moment since I am not sure if i will going after one or not, but if i absolutely was, i would say nothing higher than about 700-900 dollars.
Im not exactly fussed about refractors or reflectors, i just want a decent long term scope to put on my current GOTO ALT-AZ mount so i can get some decent pictures
But im also open to scopes that arent Astrographs, but still produce great results visually and imaging wise.
I was looking at an ED80 from Skywatcher, but it is sort of out of my price range(for now, until work begins in a few weeks.)
Also, i have heard that my current mount(ALT-AZ GOTO) will limit really long exposures, but at the moment i am able to produce some pretty damn fine images with it. So maybe for now i should keep the current scope, and upgrade the mount, or buy some better imaging equipment( Proper T-Adapter) or maybe even some reducers.
Im just in the planning zone atm, but im open to any help i can get
Also, thanks Rally, that is really helpful info you gave me!
