Hi All
Thanks for the info and with further reading I have come down to a choice of two. An 8" or a 10" dob.
Spoke to a chap at Andrews communications and he recommended the Guan Sheng 8" super deluxe at $499. With the five eyepieces and extras this is probably a good start for me. However my budget does go to the 10". So for traveling will the 10" fit in the boot of my Ford Focus?
This is what will determine the purchase.
Might check out the viewing night at Brisbane Planetarium this Saturday and see what members have.
Bye for now.
Dave
