Hello Aiden,
Thats excellent advice and its something I am coming to grips with as I browse the forum.
I actually have decent budget for my initial purchase and clearly the big trap is buying more than you need and particularly what one can practically utilise to the best effect.
The professionalism in this forum is astounding. Its as intimidating as its inspiring.
At this stage, observing with basic astrophotography (even though I probably don't know what basic astrophotography means).
Looking forward to talking to the team at Bintel.
