So if I was going for Deep space, where is a good starter?
DSO's image well starting out with something like an 6" SCT/EQ package and your DSLR, or to go even cheaper start with a HEQ5 GoTo mount and an ED80 with your DSLR

Many many people started out (and many still use) the ED80 on a HEQ5 or EQ6 mount
