Have a look on ebay. Good quality used tripods like Manfrotto for < £100. Id also look at used 600D cameras, body only £150/200. You can then send that off to be modified for say £100. There's a big difference after modifying the camera! If you could stretch the budget again (sell the 4000D?) you could buy a decent clip filter for the camera to help with LP. 

To be honest, i actually really like my 4000d. I know its very entry level, but its served me well. That being said, im definitely considering getting it modded. Thanks for the advice

So, just to let everyone who was kind enough to reply...I have almost certainly made my mind up thank to your great advice and info.

- Mod my 4000d

- better tripod

- CLS-CCD filter (most likely skytech brand..maybe Astonimik)

- If i can find one in stock, a ZWO cam to use as a guide cam.

 

Cheers
