By digital do you mean GoTo? (Automatic finding of objects)

Is there a local club you can visit to try a few scopes out?

Also, worth looking at Stargazers lounge (website) as you'll find these questions answered there in the beginners section, you're also more likely to find people who have used the scopes you're interested in.

I think there has been a long running thread on telescopes in this forum in which a lot of your questions might have already been answered.

Don't rule out binoculars in the range of 15x70-20x90 or, like my first foray into "scopes", 25x100.

Correct orientation, mobile, easy to set up and get on with it, remember the best telescope is the one you actually USE!
