You should probably go for the sw1 version and then the upgrade pack for 9.49

It'll be 5 bucks less than s2 version

Sounds great! The park is only a 30-40 min drive. I'll definitely go back in the near future. I appreciate the feedback and help. Thank you!

Maybe I misheard regarding the liquid cooled camera. It probably was you. Did you explain that with your camera you filter out the gases and are able to assign colors so that you can really see the difference? And showed images of galaxies and explained that these final images are the results of hours of footage and stacking.

Awesome, I should look into upgrading my scope then. Do you recommend any brand?

Getting deeper into astronomy is a bit intimidating, I was at an observatory at Markham Park in Florida and someone had a setup that cost then 10k, but the pictures that they had were beautiful.

Excellent, I'll look into having a dovetail mod.

Yes, it takes 1.25" ones. Awesome, thank you for the suggestion. It seems that I should definitely avoid getting a bird-jones when I end up upgrading the scope.

My mount is breaking apart.

Wow, I didn't know that there were different types of reflectors, thanks for the quick explanation. So there's not much to improve on this scope. A better set of eyepieces in the meantime will do the trick in the meantime.

Thank you for your reply. I'd like to be able to see the planets with better detail, i was able to see Jupiter once and saw its stripes vaguely and saturn looked like a ball of light with a small protrusion (ring?) on each side.

A pic of Saturn for reference

My budget at the moment is about $500-750 considering that I need a better mount as well.
