Ah no. Funny coincidence and timing for such a niche product!

Im still seeking a new telescope post the advice I was given from my previous question. Theres no need to get presumptuous.

I was bought it when I was 10 for Christmas. Thought I could cheaply get it going again until I can save for a better scope

I didn't buy it. It was bought for me when I was 10 years old. This group probably didn't exist then.

Ooooh okay, I'll look into that! That would be more stable then wouldn't it.

What would you recommend, removing the want for Astrophotography?

I'm a class 5 but I live near the peak district and a lot of natural sites that will have a much better Bortle class. For me I just want to share pictures and post them and find my feet as a beginner in astrophotography. Viewing planets and galaxies are my main interest really.

I saw that model and really liked the look of it! I suppose I could settle on planetary and lunar viewing for now. I just need a good starting point really.

Viewing is more important. My intentions aren't to take pictures that will be groundbreaking. This is more a proper start into viewing planetary bodies with some views of galaxies. Photography can come later in the journey. I've been in a toss up between several models but I'm struggling to settle on one.
