Hi Casey,
It's great to see you decided to join up!
Astro imaging eh.....nothing like diving in at the deep end LOL.
What it really comes down to is your budgetary contraints.
How much money will you have to sink into the hobby?
1. First off you need a decent eq mount. Preferably one that is set up ready to autoguide eg. heq5pro
2. The most popular first scope for imaging is the ED80. It's such a useful size, I couldn't do without mine.
3. A guide scope
4. guide camera
5. a dslr or a ccd
All of these items can be bought second hand, we have a great buy and sell section here on IIS. Sometimes, if you're lucky, an entire imaging set up comes up for sale.
Good luck.
