Hi Nick,
I wouldn't want to suggest this scope or that. Just too many things to consider.
If your intension is to get a scope as a present, and you are prepared to lay down a certain amount of money, you may be best served with taking the receipiant to a reputable telescope retailer where you are. You may surprise them with a gift voucher with which they can then select the best instrument that best fits their circumstances. The surprise won't be any less, but it actually would be a more personal gift as the final choice will ultimately be theirs!
They may find that a smaller scope with more bells and whistles suits them. OR a larger, simpler scope is more their cup of tea. See what I mean? The surprise is no less fantastic, but actually much more special if the choice is theirs!
Alex.
