Thanks Peter,

I am still researching scopes, cameras, etc.
My aim is for pretty pictures of wide field, deep space and planets.
I wanted to try to find a setup that works well together.

My short list atm is:
  • Takahashi TOA130NFB or Tak TOA130NS or Tak FSQ106EDX
  • SBIG STX or FLI ProLine 16803 w/CentreLine CFW or FLI ProLine 11002m-0 w/CentreLine CFW or SBIG STT with FW & A/G
  • FLI Atlas Focuser or Optec 2" Temperature Control Focuser Kit
  • Possibly STi Planet Cam & AutoGuider or Starlight Xpress Lodestar Autoguider with an Orion 80mm short tube
  • Paramount MX or EQ6 Goto Mount (I don't have a permanent observatory and have access to a dark site about 20mins drive away)

· The SkyX Pro + Camera addon + Tpoint addon
· Maxim DL
· Registax or Deepsky Stacker
· Photoshop

Any feedback on these choices would be welcome.
Kind regards,

David
