Hi,

I'm new to the forum, so I’ll quickly give a little introduction. I live in Perth and I've been into astronomy for a little while now. I purchased my first telescope (4” Tasco Newtonian reflector) about 6/7 years ago, which has satisfied my astronomy needs up until now. A few months ago I got a Canon EOS 400D, and now I want to get into some astrophotography, and I would also like to upgrade my scope.

So, a couple of questions. I would like some recommendations for a new scope, the most I really want to spend is around the $2000 dollar mark. Obviously I would like a telescope that would be good for astrophotography and also for general viewing. If anyone could give me some advice on what to buy and where to buy, it would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
