The Mak Cas would be good for Planets being an f12, not sure on their reputation though... But only a 100mm apature you are really only limited to looking at Mercury, Venus, Jupiter its 4 moons and Saturn in any detail, the other planets would be a little out of reach I think, Neptune and Uranus will only look like coloured stars.

You dont need GOTO to enjoy DSO's they are up there for everyone to enjoy, just because you have GOTO doesnt mean they are out of reach for everyone else that wants to start out like you do, without GOTO.

Good luck with your purchasing journey...
