Nice one cheers, I'll most likely get some barlow leneses like 2x or 3x if it comes with them.

Been looking for a decent all rounder that won't break the bank. I have been eyeing up a Skyliner 200P on Dobsonian mount.
I have seen one on an EQ5 mount but that's £469. I can buy a better mount later down the line if needs be, as I'm purely watching atm and won't be taking images.
Budget wise, £500 max at the moment. I know next to nothing about telescopes, accesories and terminology, just what I have seen from videos. Based in the UK.

Ordered the telescope finally, anything I should know?

After looking around back and forth deciding between a 130, 150 or 200p I settled on a 200P with an EQ5 from First Light Optics. I know the mount will need upgrading for any serious imaging but this little lot should be fine to view with.
I don't plan on accessories just yet as it comes with Barlows and now I have to decide on a light weight DSLR. Any ideas? around £300 or 400 but that might not get me much.
