If you wanted to go the other way for long exposure photography, the CPC has a relatively cheap upgrade path than the 10" dob does.

I wanted to get something different than a dob, this may sound stupid but it will live in our lounge room so I can just take it straight out to the back bbq area and my wife would like something a bit more stylish so to speak. So what do you think of a skywatch Newtonian 254mm black diamond, I think it has a eq6 mount. Do you think it would be better than the CPC. Thanks
