If your primary goal is astrophotography, you're better off with a GEM. While others may disagree, a GEM can be a little bit of a pain just for visual use - need to rough polar align etc. The electronics behind the Meade and Celestron telescopes are quite impressive especially when used in Alt/Az modes.

Comes back to what your interests are and the quantity of time you intend to give your passion. Don't rush into anything. There are plenty of people in this forum that can help you along your journey.
