Am i mad spending another grand to turn it into a reflector?

Would i be better of with something like this:

anyone ever used one of these?

dont buy it its not worth it what mount have you got

dave the Celestron Edge HD 800 is the same thing only better
and its the same price as the Celestron C9,25 tell them to give
you a deal on the Edge HD 800 and NEQ-6 PRO

which is not worth it?

and the Edge HD is over 3 grand.

Perhaps to go back a step or two...

What's you main aim with the telescope?
Are you a primarily a visual observer, primarily an astrophotographer or a bit of both?

If you are primarily an astrophotographer, what's you main interest?
Solar/Lunar/Planetary/Deep Sky?

Hi Michael,

Im interested in deep sky astrophotography. I would say Im a bit of both i enjoy a good evening out seeing many targets, but as i also love photography id love to be able to take some nice shots of the sights I see.

My budget is slightly more, about 3k.

I also see this scope on TS website.

Im after as large an aperture as i can get, and also as low F/
