I havent mentioned astrophoto, but the option has swayed me to the skywatcher.
I agree with you wholeheartedly about variables astron, and some peoples expectations.
I think the sketches threads are a good indicator, but every night can be differnt, as is every eye.But for a sample of what can be expected of say the same object through different size scopes its handy.
Time is what I've got atm. I'll get the/a scope and worry about camera's when I'm back earning. And yes i understand that a goto dob is not prime choice for photo, but it allows a wetting of the toe, before the expensive plunge into cameras and dedicated imaging scopes, $5k eq mounts and on n on...
I'll send you another pm during the week ron. I understand it is for sale and would expect you to sell to the first person to offer you the right fistfull of fifties, but i am interested. I wasnt thinking 2nd hand after laughing at gumtree ads, but i shall throw some research at how the goto's hold up... i only see the warranty being worth the new price for the goto side of things.
B in touch, clear skies n open eyes
