Thankyou for everybodies advise. I went and bought the celestron 8" cpc goto fork mount scope with gps and xlt coatings. I lifted the 9.25 cpc @ 58 lbs. and then the 8" cpc @ 42 lbs. and as I have a bad shoulder I decided on the lighter of the two. I know aperture rules,but only if you can take the scope out when you want. I have to carry it up two fights of stairs to my backyard (outback). I don't think 1.25" of apertue will make that much difference. I will use it for more plantary viewing then anything else and lite photography and will eventully buy a wedge for it. I also bought a gto 2" sct diagonal with 1.25 adaptor, 31mm 2" eye piece and a AC adaptor. I already have a 21mm,12.5mm,10mm and a 8mm 1.25 celestron x-cel series eye pieces. I have a small digital camera I like to try a Orion SteadyPix Camera Mount to do some afocial photography. Anyone have suggestions on photography will a small digital camera?
