Like the others have said, if all you have to spend is about $700, don't try astrophotography....leave that till later, once you've got the money to get into it and the knowledge of the sky to know what you're looking at and where it is. Stick with a big dob, and funnily enough you can do some piccie through it. Either afocally using your DSLR or a DMK/DBK camera will take piccies of the Moon and planets through a dob OK.

$700 will buy you a 10" Bintel dob ($599), and an extra $99 will get you a 12" dob ($799).
