Hello,
I am about to upgrade my ST7e to either the ST-8XE or ST-2000XM. If I was to break out in percentages the types of imaging I do I'd say that it would be 30% wide field at around f4 AP130, 25% at around f6 AP130, 25% using my C9.25 (either at f6.3 or f10) and 20% with a very short small refractor at say 300mm (like my Tak 60c). I'd say 40% of my imaging is done using H-alpha filtering. Because of the latest upgrades to the ST-2000XM, I am finding it hard to not purchase it over the ST-8XE, especially given the $2500 price difference! Any help is GREATLY appreciated!!!
Thanks
