I'm stuck. I'm currently selling my "lightbucket" - 10" LX50. I have a televue genesis w/ old equatorial mount & drive. Should I buy the MN56 & find some way to mount on current tripod? It seems sturdier than my old cg5. The Tal seems to have good reviews & a mount w/ drives is priced under $800. However, I live near many lights so I need something more portable than my 10". The genesis needs to go back to televue for some collimating so I need something in the meantime. I also want to use for astrophotography. One last problem, I still have a hard time finding messier objects except of course, the simple few. Smart ones, what to do?
MN56, Tal150 or just go goto LX90?
