So what do you reckon? Looking, for the moment, at the Skywatchers: Clearly the 8" is more portable; the 12" is, by all accounts, a water heater; and the 10" seems a reasonable compromise. Now I want to stay under $1000 (putting the collapsible 12" out of range) and so I can't help thinking that I should just get the largest aperture I can for the money and go with the 12". The question really is: will taking it out to the patio become a massive chore? Much less, taking it out to the country...
Your opinions?
