Orion starblast 6 VS skywatcher 150 pds

[vital shuttle]

I want to use it for deepsky astrophotography and planetary astrophotography

[modern pier]

Do you have a mount you are putting the scope on?

[fluid yacht]

150pds is likely the right choice for astrophotography, assuming that you have a capable mount

[modern pier]

Also take into consideration the price of the coma corrector

[fluid yacht]

You'd need a coma corrector for astrophotography with any newtonian? Difference is that the 150pds has a focuser that is more refined for astrophotography

So it's more a question of which OTA is better

[rare plinth]

Yes

Get the 150pds

It's better

But only if you have a mount

They'll need a capable mount regardless, a 6 inch newt will need something more heavy duty
