I want to take photos of industrial chimneys from up to 1000 feet away and as close as 200 feet away. Previously I owned an 11" Celestron telescope. That was 20 years ago. Now I would like to buy again, and I am thinking of getting a 16" mead from tronicsale, they are at the following address:
Electronics Sale | Photography | ProVideo | ProAudio | Television
Tronic Sale Store
Pondok Indah Mall
Lantai 2 Unit C1, Jl. Metro Pondok Indah, RT.1/RW.16,
Pd. Pinang, Kby. Lama,
DKI Jakarta. 12310
They have there the Meade LX200-ACF UHTC 16" F/10 Catadioptric Telescope (OTA Only)
for only $4,421.00. Typically these seem to go for triple that price here in the USA.
I could get a electron 14" for near that same price here in the usa.
Additionally, I keep running across these telescopes separated by pipe frame, not sure what to make of those, seems like bugs and light would get in there as well as a lot of dust. What's the advantage? Here is an example:

https://astromart.com/classifieds/astromart-classifieds/telescope-reflectors/show/teeter-telescope-10-f5-with-zambuto-mirror-excellent.
What I want to do is take photos with my camera of bricks.
Can anyone please help me here and give me a little advice of what I should do? I would be happy with a used one, if that makes any sense, but the 16" mead seems too hard to find used, as well as the 14" celststron.
Thanks.
