APO or LX200R

its allmost time for me to get an OTA, i would like to get one to start
eather a 80mm APO or LX200R 8"

i will be using this with my hutech 350d, i dont have money growing off me, but i certainly have the passion to go onwards with astrophotography.

options with the apo is the Orion ED80 allthough i would like a better focuser, ive been looking at the new meade apo, but personally i have no idea and i dont know anyone who dose!

in my mind i am swaying more towards a low FL APO, because, it seems easyer path and my knowledge of lx200r lacks!

The Question is which one First?

Any suggestions, or anyone want to convince me to buy a lx200r 8" before a low FL APO?
