Buying A S/H Scope
Hi All.
New member deciding to get back into a hobby I had as a kid with an old Tasco, and hoping to share it with my kids.
I am looking at a secondhand scope, Celestron Advanced Series C6-SGT Schmidt-Cassegrain. The question is how will this scope be for me to get back into astronomy. I have a budget of $2500-3000 (the s/h unit is half of that). Before seeing this scope i was looking at an 8SE, 800 CPC or if i could stretch the budget a bit the Evolution 8.
I don't want to spent the money on this secondhand unit and buy something that is too hard to set up and ends up collecting dust.
At the moment not sure if my "viewing" will turn into AP.
Any help greatly appreciated.
Mike
