I started with a 60 mm refractor, never really had the urge to use bynos if a 'scope was available (bit like taking a hyundai to lygon street when you have a Monaro in the shed) . Dont buy a cheap telescope you will blow your money, have a long read of posts here and you should be on the right track. Have a chat to the local club and see what works in melouurnes glow, but your probably looking for at least an 8" newtonian (on a dobsonian mount) used can be a good choice.....
