Note, focal length of C9.25 is 2350mm not 2032mm. That latter is for the C8.

A mount with an EQ platform would be better (dare I say essential) for astro-photography.

You can get a Meade LX80 8" OTA on HEQ5 mount for about $2.5k or a Meade LX600-ACF 10" f8 for about $7.3k. The latter has been designed for astro-photography and comes with many features especially for those imaging.

Both telescopes available from Bintel.
