SCT and field derotators

Hi all

I was wondering if anyone out there has used a SCT with a field derotator for imaging. Is it effective enough for average imaging? I don't have a permanent place for a scope and live in town so anything that might eliminate the need for polar alignment would be a benefit (timewise especially).

Thanks!

The Lx200 series de-rotator works well - I think this is being covered on your other thread. I used one for spectroscopy, OAG guiding with PHD....
