Newbie question about 6" Catadioptic Newtonian
Hello,
Have used a cheapie 60mm for few years on and off and am ready to move up to a 6" newtonian with an equitorial mount.
How are the catadioptic scopes? I have found a 6", 1400mm, equitorial mount w/ a couple of eyepieces new for about $150.
I just don't know if this is a good deal.
I mostly want basic viewing, planets, moon, etc, but don't want to have to upgrade for a while, I figure a 6" should keep me happy for basic family viewing.
Any info/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
I need to stay under $200; wife/baby etc.
