Yes, TOA 150 would be my choice for your stated purpose. Why you are concerned about the focuser for visual, I don't know. I'm sure the Tak focuser will not have any problems.

I am a bit like you, I can also afford any scope on your list, but my best decision after many years observing with an Astro-Physics 130EDT, was to get a good reflector. In my case an 18" SDM with a Sutching mirror.
So Richard you see , if you maintain your passion for observing,you will come to the dark side and buy a reflector in the long run!
