Sen - pretty cool images.

I'd go with the EQ6PRO mount - sturdier than the EQ5PRO (which is a good mount btw), and gives you more room later on for a larger aperture etc, or for imaging.

I've heard very very good things about StellarVue refractors - each one is hand made and checked for QA by the owner I believe. A bit more pricier than the mass produced units, but I believe better quality in the long term. After StellarVue, it seems that most Williams Optics (WO for short) get a good review as having decent optics. If you're prepared to pay a bit more money for a refractor, go a Takahashi ;-)

Where abouts in Brissie are you?

Dave
