But....it would pair up nicely with a Vixen VMC110L.

Use the scope for video imaging with the Toucam and shoot wide fields with a DSLR and lens.
I think it would be an ideal set up for the casual Astrophotographer.

Thanks Jeanette, I remember this from one of your older posts, however, what about the fact the SmartStar A has an EQ mode which tips it over? you think this will still have the same problem?
I assume the VMC is a Mak Cas? of so, then due to my penchant for all things Skywatcher, I may go for a 150mm Skywatcher MAK Black Diamond for the same price as the ED100??? This probably has too long a FL for decent deep sky stuff?? One reason for going the ED80 I suppose, being a shorter FL scope....
Too many choices...
Cheers
Chris
