here is what i did for a basic setup all brand new.

HEQ5PRO SynScan "Go-To" equatorial mount and tripod $1099 from Andrews
Orion Awesome Autoguider Package $599 from bintel ... this will give you a auto guide ccd which will be great in the long run ... also this scope is a great guide scope ... however probably not the greatest thin for long term astrophotography.

CANON EOS 1000D Digital SLR Twin Lens Kit $743 this gives you a good DSLR that you can also use outside of astro if you find you should not enjoy it (hey it happens) from dick smiths

Orion Deluxe Off-Axis Guider $169 bintel so you can guide for really long astro shots.

Total price - $2610
