No I'm saying with $1k you can get a lot more if you shop around. IMHO get a small refractor, maybe 80mm F/5 to start with if you want to go down the astrophotography path. Save your money for a good EQ mount down the road.
If you already have a DSLR you could get a polarie or startrack and cut your teeth at doing widefield and learning the basics so you're not thrown into the deep end.
