Hi All,
Im fairly new to this field (interest less than a year). I am mostly a backyard stargazer but want to upgrade from my 4” Achro.
I am currently looking into a new SCT OTA (I prefer the ergonomics and comfort viewing over a Dob).
I have a Stellarvue M2 mount (imported from USA) and an Innorel carbon fibre tripod. I will liberate a starsense explorer mount for the upcoming SCT.
I am currently torn between the Meade LX65 8” SCT OTA with ACF Vs Celestron Edge HD 8”.
Im a purely visual type of person.
Considering the recent Celestron price hikes, there is a more substantial £600 difference between the two with the Edge now being much more dearer.
Some of the general consensus online seems to indicate the Edge being the better scope.
Is the Edge that much better for visual? Is it worth the extra £600?
Many thanks in advance.
