Request for Beginner Advice

Posted By Ivan Gastaldo

Hello Dave, and welcome to THE DARK SIDE... 8)

You already have some nice equipment to "start with", the mount and scopes will be fine.

Before I jump on recommendations, is there any idea on the budget for the camera? do you have anything already in mind that you would like to image?
Tell us a bit about your location... do you live in a Light Polluted city, or are your skies fairly dark? really dark?

Looking forward to your reply,

Clear skies!
