Thanks for all the advise guys. I will be going telescope browsing/shopping in the next couple days and actually have my eye set on the ED80.
I have found the scope for $499 @ Andrews Communications.
I also found the same scope at myastroshop.com.au for $595.
Assuming Andrews is selling the exact same scope than myastroshop.com.au then I will be getting it from Andrews.
The other thing I am looking at, is which mount to buy for the ED80. If the scope itself is gonna cost me $499,how much would a reasonably good mount cost?
Andrews is also selling the scope with an AZ3 mount for $650. Though I have been advised that mount isn't very good for that scope. So I will need to look into it.
Can anyone recommend a good mount for the ED80 with the price.
Thanks
Frosty
