Moon-Watcher

Thanks.  The 120 will be on an eq3 2 mount but I have here a still unused eq5.

So in terms of picture clarity, what would be the main difference between the 120 and 200?

And yes, I will use a filter for viewing the sun ?

 Thanks again

Ok.  Hello.  Just starting astronomy again. Would like to view/photograph moon/planets and maybe sun?

What would be best scope for this?  My 200p dobsonian or a skywatcher 120 refractor?

I also have a goto EQ5.

Thanks

Ha!  You say that but, everyone knows its Swansea...

Capital!

Hello my friends from the TRUE capitol of Wales.

Just bought a Skyliner 8" Dobsonian.  Man its big

Whats happining in South Wales?

Another ooops!  Meant to say:  Could not agree More with everyting you said...

Sorry...

Qualia:  Could not agree more with everything you said.  Learning about the Cosmos was my first interest as a child.  Patrick Moore, Carl Sagan et al...

My post was of course meant as a joke following on from (unlike mine!) very funny earlier posts about Hubble.  The Skyliner 200, so I have been told, is a very good piece of kit and cannot wait to use it  :-))

Not sure what to make of this post.  It is obviously well informed and obviously a result of experience.

However, if I knew these things BEFORE I bought my first telescope (arrived today), I would have bought the Hubble Telescope and not the Skyliner 200 Dobsonian I am lumbered with!
