Considering I am getting half of it from elsewhere anyway, I'm not under huge pressure to get one there unless it really is a good idea. Do you have the Northgroup "2 inch/50.8mm 99% dielectric diagonal (silver color)" diagonal Laurie? What do you think of it?
I have a Televue 2" diagonal and all Televue Nagler eyepieces, Jethro. But I have used a North Group diagonal and it is fine.
If you are a novice, I would go for all the visual gear first and forget about astrophotography for now. You need to learn how to use your telescope, how to use your mount and learn the night sky first.
If you look in "show us your equipment", there is a photo of my NG102mm set up for lunar/planetary photography.
