there is a listing on facebook marketplace for $300 aud and it comes with 2 lenses and a carry case. I currently am using a SV503 80ED with 0.8x matched reducer / field flattener, and my phone as the camera. should i grab the 600D or wait another couple of months until i have the money for a dedicated astro camera?

Also the guy with the zwo 585 and 114mm new (he used to be named tohu but i guess he changed the username) was doing fine without guiding
