a 1250mm FL scope too long to mount on an EQ mount. Bunkum. What's it made out of tissue paper. If you want to image with it then where there is a will there is a way.
I tell you what Fremanwarrior. If you get the scope and a set of rings, come up to Astroron's at Kenilworth one dark weekend, we'll run off a few shot's of some fabulously stunning deep sky object and email them to them. I can tell you now if we can't get a shot it won't be because of tube flexure.
