Hi Caractus,

I can well recommend you my setup. I went on that path (looking for the best option, price affordable) a couple of years ago: Using Binos for fast setup (having young kids, there is no much time for late night astronomy), monopod for stability, and a chair to enjoy

Binoculars: Bushnell Legacy 10x50 6.5 FOV. Fully multicoated. BaK-4 prisms

Mount: Rokinon M67 Monopod with Tefoto T3 metal ball head (with 1/4"-to- 3/8" adapter) and an Alpen aluminium tripod adapter)

You can Google these pieces of equipment. I bought them on Amazon, except the binocular: I went into an astronomy shop and test a bunch of them in the range of 100CAD

I've been enjoying this setup a lot. I've made some sketches even on cold nights.

I just recently bought a Bushnell Legacy 10x50. Im startring with it....Images are clear and bright, more than nikkon, celestron, Minolta of the same range. Waterproof, fog proof. Multicoated lens. 6.5 degrees FOV, Im pretty happy with it!!!!
