Thanks again, the C14 is pretty much the best "consumer" OTA out there for planetary, and some of the best images I've seen of the planets have been taken with it. However, the size, weight and cost are too prohibitive for me at the moment, and others in my Astro club are taking really nice images with a 12" Newt, with significantly more detail than my 9.25 is capable of.
Is that little bit extra worth it? Not sure. Maybe I need to travel out of the suburbs and try to catch some better seeing...
