Can you post a couple of links for the ED80 and Pro. My understanding is that all the ED80s are basically the same scope with different colours and badges. I think the Pro includes a goto mount as in this one from www.myastroshop.com.au

Pro ED80

Also without GOTO, how do you guys find the faint objects in the sky that you want to image if you cannot see them?
We're just reeeaallly good.

Nah most use star maps, either hardcopies or with a planetarium program and then star hop to the area..

how much can be seen with the ED80?
Heaps actually. Don't expect to see mag 13 galaxies but there are plenty of other objects to see, including brighter galaxies.
