i personally wouldn't get a cassegrain simply from a FL perspective i do enjoy having the ability to go 'wide' with the dob and powermating up for planets.


here is a couple of links to some deep space pics I've taken:

I have to agree with xtjohn on this in saying well done on those photos, they are brilliant. That pretty much helps me into buying a dob with goto. Thank you, sometimes we all need a little push in a direction

May I ask the astrophotography set up (what equipment) you used?
