Welcome to the forum Coffscoast. I had a 8" Dob(Newtonian) for 10 years mainly observe in my suburban Sydney backyard. Never regret having it. Set up in no time; no polar alignment;no cables and it gives views bright enough for both planetary and deep sky. An all-rounder in my opinion.Remember the best scope is the one that you would use most. And if you wanted to dabble into photography just add a webcam($100 including adapter) and a laptop & off you go.
