The reason I'm moving up in aperture is to go a bit deeper and increase the resolution in my pictures too. Do you think this scope will do it or do you know of better choices for a similer budget? Right now my image scale is about 2.5 arcsec / pixel and with this system I should be closer to 1.4 arcsec /pixel. Thanks for any advice. For the tube only I'm looking at spending $1.5-$2k.
I have a 12" f5.5 (from Bintel) on a G11, works well and I recommend it for the budget.
