I have the best of both worlds for Astro imaging in 2 locations
My permanent NexDome Obs South Coast NSW Bortle 3 ( takes 5 to 8 mins to start imaging )
My semi permanent set up in backyard Sydney Bortle 8 ( takes 20 mins to start imaging )
I use to set up and tear down when I first started at both locations 6 years ago
I’d look for another hobby if I had up to set up and tear down now as my gear is too complicated and heavy
Set up and tear down is definitely more suited to the light weight portable wide field guys
