hello tony the beginners equipment that seem to come up time and time again are:
skywatcher mount (heq5 goto)
orion / skywatcher ed 80 (doublet or triplet, f7.5 or f6)
cannon 1000 or 1100d
as others will say after tis is it depends upon what you want to photograph!
this list would be a good start though
pat
