I'm new to astronomy and recently bought my first telescope. I got a Bintel 8" Dobsonian and it has been great. Stars, planets, nebulas and so on are all clearly visible and exciting to find and observe. Get that Astronomy Australia 2013 book too, it has great ideas for what to look out for each month and charts to help you find the objects. Well worth the $25 or $35 that it costs.
