After a year hiatus at the hobby...I am getting back into astronomy again. I saw a great sale on the AT 6" ($299) and wondering if this would be a good scope for visual (and perhaps astro imaging). I have had in the past a Meade LX200 10" (loved it for imaging and viewing of the planets...but too heavy to set up)...then went down to a Williams Optics MH 90 for astro-imaging of DSO's--still have the WO. But now I'd like to get back into viewing the planets again and since this scope is at such a deal...would I be disappointed (I do have some extreme quality eyepieces down to 2 mm). What do you think?
