I won't take it as rude because I didn't buy the scope specifically for astrophotography... I was well aware that Dob's generally aren't designed for that but that you can work around that if you are motivated enough.

I am very happy with the views I get out of it (and it is also very important to note that it was a second hand scope as I can't afford a decent sized new scope... I'm very happy with the quality for what I paid for).

As regards the difference between brands and astrophotography readiness... well that just assumes I don't like the odd challenge here and there. The fact that I am now able to get prime focus with my camera means research or not, I seem to have solved the problem.

Just because one way is easier, doesn't mean it is the most rewarding.
