Good point g.
The imaging I am doing at the moment (and probably for a while) is with a Modified Toucam so I doubt I will be doing 5+ minute exposures. The longest exposures I currently take with the Toucam are only 35 seconds, but I have to think of the future as well. If I end up with a better CCD imager or a DSLR then the ability to do longer exposures will be handy.
I am informed that the $1249 CG-5GT is the latest model. Not sure about the others.
I was also informed last week that the LXD75 still uses the older LXD55 motors. Dunno if thats a good thing or not.
Another thing to consider is that I will be controlling the scope from about 8 metres away in my little control room, so laptop control is a necessity.
Also, with the CG5, is there any extra accessories (cables, programmes etc) needed to autoguide it?
