OK, let me buck the trend here...
Number 2 please,
Skywatcher 12" with Autotracking.
Why? Cause its an absolute pain in the ass having to keep nudging the scope at high magnification and with the tracking on, you have much more time to see what you want to see.
A push to with AN would be fabulous, 12" OR 16" but when you get there, you still have to nudge it.......
Of course, an autotracking collapsible 12" WITH Argo Navis would probably do me for the rest of my life...I dont think (in my opinion) that this combo could be beaten in terms of convenience, portability and aperture for a LONG time.
There is my 2.2 cents (inc GST)
Cheers
Chris
