Matt, I live on the edge of Geelong on top of a hill. Street lights can be a problem(which council have promised me they will fix). Most viewing will be done from home with the ocassional trip to dark sky places.
I believe a 8 inch Newtonian with focal length of 1000 is the best way to go to get a taste of lunar, planets & deep sky.
I had originally decided on the Celestron C8NGT but decided I would like to locate objects myself so changed to the C8. However at $1299- compared to $900- for SW600 from what I have read it doesn't appear that the quality of the SW600 is much different from C8.
Can you tell me what you can see with yours, where are you viewing from, what additional assesories you have added, what eyepieces you have used, or anything that will help my decision to purchase the sw600.
Thanks
Darren
