Celestron CGEM 800

[Ponch]

Hi

I am looking at selling my Meade 10" LX50 for a Celestron CGEM 800.

Does anyone own or have used one? What is it like for astrophotography??
When i purchased my LX50, Meade stated it was great for astro work......yeah right!!

So if anyone has or used one can you please advise if this is a good scope.

Thanks in advance.

Kind regards

I have a 9.25" CGEM on order and should arrive any day now (I was hoping for today but am still waiting). I'll keep you posted!
