Here is the place to talk about all those equipment(Telescope, Mounts, Eyepieces, etc...) you have. Not sure which scope/eyepiece is best for you? Trash it out here!

there is an ETX125 with Autostar in astromart for US$375 without tripod.

hey guys ,really glabe you are helping out, :)
I still learning on operation on the EQ mount.
But personlly i would like those motor mount, where you move your scope with a gamepad or joystick stuff, cool technology isn't it.

If i using a GOTO system there's really no need for me to learn operation of the EQ mount. and my astro friends told me a EQ is really heavy. even for a small scope.

Well, a GOTO system is normally an add-on to a EQ mount ;P.
