Looking for recommendations for a good guide scope for a Celestron NexStar 8se. Not really looking for OAG, but an actual guide scope since I already have a QHY camera that should work, and would like a guide scope that could transfer to another telescope on down the line.
Since I have upgraded to an EQ6-R on the main refractor, I am now using the EQ-35 Pro for this scope, and would really like to use it for some more detailed DSO captures, even with it's narrower FOV. I think it may have some potential but two things it will need is a good camera/scope for tracking, and a reliable electronic focuser..but one step at a time. A guide camera takes priority.
