Hi Nicole,

I was curious to see which way this was going to go.
Looks like the pull of astro-imaging won out. Although, with a BD ED80 you can still get good views through the eyepiece of moon, planets and brighter DSOs. I have a BD ED100 and use it for visual. It is a good scope.

Maybe, also keep an eye out for a bargain 10" Dob. You can then eyeball some of the fainter objects (e.g. galaxies) while the camera is ticking over.

Good luck, Rob
