AndySutton Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 Hi all, My name is Andy and I live in South London. I have an avid interest in Astronomy, used top have a scope years ago, Newtonion but never really made the most of it. Now I am getting the urge to get back into it. I am a keen photographer and would like to get started with Astrophotography, I own a Canon 80D and 600D and would like to find a scope that will allow good general viewing that I can attach the camera to. I'd also like to meet fellow enthusiasts to pick brains and learn from! Looking forward to being a part of the forums!! Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cletrac1922 Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 Hi Andy Welcome from Land Down Under Would not go past a SW ED80 on a HEQ5 or 6 mount You can now also get a Wi-Fi adapter for SW EQ mounts, which recently purchased, and still learning to drive You will also get other suggestions as well John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If AP is your passion, do yourself a favour and get yourself a copy of this book before buying anything else. It will save you tiime, money and heartache in the long run. Enjoy the journey.
