Andrews Communications is having a sale on their Skywatcher telescopes, and I'm looking to upgrade my 5 inch Newt...
Currently, I'm deciding between purchasing the 8 inch Black Diamond on the EQ5, or just the HQE5 mount; unfortunatley the HQE5 AND the scope aren't an option. I'm looking for guidance as to which one to go for, opinions?
Is it likely that the 8 inch BD will be too heavy for the EQ5? Also, I should add that this will be my second telescope.
Thanks, Kate
