Hi,

ZWO-AM3 would be slightly cheaper if your setup is not that heavy.

You would need a guidescope and camera for guiding.

Taking pictures under our light polluted skies would need at least a broadband filter such as Optolong L-Pro otherwise exposures will get washed out even with short exposures.
