Hi, Like many other people before me I would like some advice from those of you who have somewhat more experience than me.

A few months ago I purchased a Skywatcher 10" Dob. Some of the things I have seen have blown me away. I have become hooked and am looking at what my next purchase should be.

In the long run I would like to have a go at astrophotography so anything I buy I have this in the back of my mind.

I was thinking that I would purchase a EQ6 Mount and put my dob tube on it. Later i would then look at replacing the dob tube with somthing a little more suited to imaging.

My questions for you all then are:

1. Can I but my dob tube on the eq6 mount?
2. What would this set up be like for intro astrophotgraphy.
3. is the eq6 mount good for more advanced astrophotography once I got some skills and replaced my dob tube.
4. Might I be better going for somthing like a Meade LX90 or Celestron instead of eq6 mount then replacing tube.

Thanks for your time

Regards Matt
