Hi,
I have been in the fortunate position of using then schools telescope that we purchased a year ago for our Physics course. We managed to get a Skywatcher ED 80 on HEQ5 Pro mount with Williams Optics petzvall 66 as a guide scope. I am now in the position of purchasing my own scope as well as have use of the school scope. I would like advice on the following combination. It is to be used for both astrophotography as well as viewing. I am looking at a Skywatcher sw 252(10") newtonian on an EQ6 Pro white mount (Andrews have them for $2499). I am also thinking of purchasing a Skywatcher Ed 80 for the guide scope come imaging scope as well. Both the 10' and the 80 would be used for imaging which is the main focus of the scope. I have $3000 to spend. Gone are the savings. Any advice on this combination for the above mentioned purposes.
Thanks Mark B
