Hello all, I am just about to buy a Guan Sheng Dob and I am hoping that you can give me your opinion on wether it's better for me to buy a 10" Deluxe or for $100 more buy the 12" basic? (That's what my current budget allows)
I have read the reviews and just about every post on the subject of Dob's and and after weighing up the pros and cons my choice now comes down to this final question. I am hoping that those of you who either own or have used both in your experience will tell me you opinion on wether the features of the deluxe outweigh the larger aperture.
The other quandary I find myself in is that on one hand I would like to buy the scope before Astro Camp since I will have the opportunity to ask for advice on how to use it properly. On the other hand, should I hold off until I have looked through some scopes? Considering I have never looked trough anything better than my junky eBay "Wobblemaster 2000".
I suppose I could look at some on Thursday night and then drive back to Andrews in Greystanes on on Friday and then drive back up.
Sounds crazy I know, but so was impulsively buying a $90 Reflector from eBay. Then again, I could win the lucky door prize and have a 12" Bintel for free. LOL!
So many decisions to make, what should I do?? Any Advice will be appreciated.
