Is that because the camera sensor is generally further in from the top of the nose piece than the eyepiece field stop is? That makes sense I guess.

Also if you go for different rigs for imaging and eyepieces then you might be able to look at different secondary mirrors. With my 16 I use a 70 mm for imaging and an 88mm for visual (don't do that often though) as my camera has a smaller field of view.
You just need to figure out where your even illumination field needs to get to.

I hadn't thought about that, I will be using APS-C size sensors mainly (probably something like a QHY8) The secondary I have at the moment it a 50mm one.
