Hi
If you are planning to get into astrophotography, you really need to think...
MOUNT
MOUNT
MOUNT
Spend as much as you can afford on a decent mount, by that I mean nothing less than an EQ-6 and if you can afford it, a Losmandy G-11 or better.
The better the mount you can afford the better your astrophotography experience will be, a decent mount will take the frustrations out of the equation.
You really only need to start off with something like an ED80 or similar to build up your experience, bare in mind that you just don't plonk a scope on a mount and take photos, other than short widefield. You will need to look at guiding if you wish to seriously get into deep sky.
All the best with your choice.
Cheers
John G
