Your reviews are definitely a must read for someone on the first steps on this amateur astronomy business. I think your decisions mirrored my own so far. I got the CG5 with my Celestron 8" and struggled with it in the beginning. Mine was a "lemon" from the wide quality variance chinese factory... using astronomyboy great how-to I dismantled it, sanded, regreased and now it is a little better. Now comes Mallincam... Oh, boy, I *need* one of those! Just having the opportunity to show people what is it about this hobby... Is it worth the money? Hi there!
