Hmm , Bayan , as said here on your thread , the 12 inch is a big scope , so are you a big strong person ? hope so because the views the 12 inch you are thinking will blow you away on all objects .

Big scope ..Heavy scope .. but awsome .
The 10 inch is a lot smaller and lighter , but as I am lead to bieleve the collumation issues with a tube design can be a hassle ? for some , . And will give great views also , some say the jump from 10 to 12 inches aint that big in brightness of the views , but each to his or her own
2 great scope's mate ,
.
I am a 6 ft tall 115kg male with a 4x4 ute and if it was my descision , I would go for the 12 inch , thats getting into deep sky material , and a lifetimes observing
, one out lay $$ wise . ( except the accesories , that will follow ..
