Does the LXD75 support autoguiding? I think it does but just checking.

What sort of astrophotography are you considering? If you are thinking planetary then the long focal length of the 8" SCT will get you started. If you are thinking Deep Space then I'd suggest looking at getting a much shorter focal length scope to start with eg; ED80, 8" f5 newtonian, 10" f4 Mak Newt (challenge to keep collimated some say).

What is it that is drawing you to the LXD75?
