I have the WO 110mm FLT with a moonlite focuser and I am very happy with that scope - for both visual and astrophotography. I also have a Celestron C9.25 Carbon Fibre with both a motor focuser and 10:1 fine focuser and it performs very well too! Perhaps because the Refractor is newer for me I am enjoying its imaging a lot -and its much faster than the C9.25.
Might I say that for budget reasons I would go the Refractor over the C9.25 for astrophotography. You see you need to saddle the OTA well, and counteract mirror shift / flop and guide well - you end up putting in quite a few extra $$$ for the SCT. I have never taken my gear to a dark sight - so my advice should be tempered.
One thing that I would say is a better mount makes the whole experience far more pleasant and reliable! So good luck!
