Seems like I am hosting an LX200 demo party this weekend. I will have =
my 8" next to my friend's 10" and a dealer has agreed to lend me a floor =
model 12" until Monday afternoon. I want to see how much difference =
there will be visually and photograpically between the three scopes at =
my observatory location. I have always wondered if I should move up to =
the 10 or 12 inch scope but I never was sure there would be a great =
difference bewteen the three scopes under my sky which would justify the =
extra expense. =20

I use the observatory more for photography and CCD work than any other =
reason. I enjoy taking images of the moon, planets, sun and deep sky =
objects. On the darkest nights the milky way is not visable.=20

Any suggestions on a testing approach???
