I know this is starting to draw a long bow from Troys original question but since thinking about this can I suugest that letting astrophotographers try scopes (ie put thier own camera on them and take 1 or 2 quick pics) would be a great marketing ploy by an astute astro supply company. I know people like Bintel and Sirius support gatherings like Astrofest here in Qld and that is why I support both of them but if say a new imaging scope was to be released and I had the chance to stick a DSLR on one to try it out it would go a heck of a long way towards me buying one if I was in the market (Im not
). Sure some co's might beat them a little on price but I would definately support the companys that helped me the most if the price differential wasnt too big.
Of coure this doesnt include limited top markets markets like RCOS etc but arent skywatcher releasing a mak-newt soon
You would get a lot of tyre kickers but if properly adverrtised at larger dark sky gatherings I am sure they would get results.
My 2c anyway
Im sitting in the observatory control room at Leyburn waiting for it to get dark to do some nb imaging (SII filter arrived today) so thats it for me tonight on the web.

. If you can try them all in the context with which you want to use them you will soon find out which suits your purposes best. Somehow think in the end that you may want one of each
