For visual use, you can build a Dobsonian-like mount for this scope for about 100$ and you could use it more confortably, because it would have a far lighter mount and it's extremely confortable to use. I use one for my 6 inch f6 achromat (Explore Scientfic) and it can be moved easily from one place to another and you can find objects with it easily. I just like it more than a cumbersome equatorial mount. Besides, an f8 scope is much more suitable for a dobsonian mount then my f6, making it easier to track objects at higher magnifications.
Nice recommend should I travel with the scope. Definitely will keep the idea in mind. As you will see in later videos however, built a backyard observatory and do a lot of real-time imaging with a REV II CCD system. So now i just pop outside on a good night and get at it!
