Mmm. I think I've come to that point where I decide where my interests lay.
$5000 for a mount is a lot to make this scope work well for astrophotography. For me at least.
My current aims may change to do more wide field work. So I might focus on buying a small scope (Orion ShortTube 80) for alignment and mount that next to my DSLR with a fast lens. At least it's a small outlay for the moment. Hopefully the LXD75 mount can manage that
This is the best immediate future I can see for photo based work. Leave the SN10 for observing for the time being.
Thanks all for the help.
