Portability is an issue. I live in a unit so I have no back garden to observe/image from. Seems that the SCT would probably be better for me generally, except for polar alignment.

Of course, to keep cost down I could go with the HEQ5 standard (non-pro) version and forgo GOTO, but I think I read that the motors aren't as accurate in the standard version. Is this true?
