Are you about to buy your first telescope?
This is the advice I give people in this position on a daily basis. This is the way I started, and it nurtured my love for the night sky by providing a memorable, positive first experience.
Look for a tabletop Dobsonian for ultimate practicality, or a traditional Dobsonian (8" is great) if you're craving better views.

You can take pictures of the Planets and the Moon using your smartphone, but deep-sky objects require a tracking mount. More info: bit.ly/smartphoneastro
Key Takeaways:
• Start with visual astronomy before astrophotography
• I suggest choosing a Dobsonian reflector to maximize light-gathering power on a budget
• Remember that a telescope that is too heavy will get used much less
• You can take pictures of the Moon and planets system objects using your smartphone
• DON'T LOOK AT THE SUN!
Once the telescope has arrived, you can educate yourself about collimation: bit.ly/collimationtutorial
