I’m about $15k in the astro-hole, and it goes a long way - about the same spec as this all in all - 14” Schmidt-cassegrain, Moravian with the 16200, filter wheel, mount, and all the rest. It all started with a little 6” scope and a cheap colour cmos imager - but I don’t feel the need to go beyond what I have. Except maybe a solar scope. And maybe a better cmos imager than my noisy SLR for planetary stuff. And maybe a new observatory.

It’s worse than having a drug habit, sometimes.

I’m not the target market for this thing at all, but at least it’s a respectable telescope and camera combo - an awful lot of stuff in this category is laughable garbage.
