Refractor experts advice

Hi Folks,

whilst buying a t adapter for my new canon camera recently (cough cough) extracted from my fiance EOS 600D i was offered a deal on a refractor.

I currently use my Skywatcher ed80 attached to my nikon camera and was going to change to the canon so i can make use of all the better softwares out there. My nikon isnt supported much anywhere very budget d3200. Anywhooo

they have for sale a SKywatcher Ed150 refractor for lowly price of $550 which peaked my interest. this thing is a beast over the little ed80.

Just wondering what peoples thoughts are. Im normally taking shots of near on anything in the sky. Galaxies, nebulas etc. I have a 10 inch dob for planetary and visual so this would purely be photography.

Would it be worth it to buy the ed150 and put the ed80 on top as a guide scope or not bother at all. Cant find much reviews online about just how good, or bad they are.

Ben
