hi matt,
as Dunk as mentioned different scopes are better for different targets.
I would suggest an 8" reflector ($450 on the website you linked or $750 for the carbon fibre) as they are bit of an allrounder. Take a look at Justin tillbrook photos at what is achievable with a similar setup.
obviously with that it leaves a lot of extra $ left over, but once you factor in other accessories - especially for guiding images it will dry up very quickly.
- coma corrector (eg, baader MPCC or RCC I)
- Off axis guider (eg TSOAG9)
- guide camera. (eg lodestar, Qhy5 ii, asi 120mm)
- light pollution filter (eg astronomic cls-ccd)
- shoestring usb shutter control
- upgraded focuser (eg moonlite or feathertouch)
cheers
rusty
