G'day all,
I've been Observing for a while now with my 130mm Skywatcher Newt on EQ2 and feel it's time for an upgrade. I Have fallen in love with Deep Sky Objects.
Now last few months I've been doing some homework on-line as to what Telescope would suit me best. And have learnt the inevitable truth that apature and/or imaging is my solution.
I didn't start out the hobby with imaging in mind but I'm not set against it. And who doesn't appreciate appature
I live on the NW Coast of Tasmania which has it's pros and Cons.
(Pros = Plenty of beautiful Dark sky areas to choose from with low to no Light pollution.
Cons = No Clubs or Hobbyist around for me to take a peek through different scopes and get advise)
There are 2 scope that I'm interested in:
1. The 16" Skywatcher Goto Dob (a bit bulky)
2. The Celestron CPC 1100 SCT (is it SCT good for DSO??)
Both are larger Apature, both fit in my ute, both around the same price tag and both have the Goto and tracking.
Please help guys, I need some advise as I want my next scope to be a good investment
