My advice would be to concentrate on visual first.
If you've never used a scope before, jumping headfirst into AP is a surefire way of fastracking your scope appearing in the classifieds.
Sorry to sound negative, but AP is a struggle for experienced astronomers with a few years under their belts.
Learn and enjoy the skies first, if you really hunger for imaging, Saturn is up at the moment and is a much easier target.
You have a dslr, why not drop it on a tripod and try some widefield shots of the milky way
