The 9.25" is a great scope, but a poor choice for venturing into
imaging with, owing to its 2350mm focal length. This great focal length
means that you will only be able to get very short exposures[subs]
without autoguiding the scope. You can get a reducer for it which
reduces the focal length down to around 1300mm, much better for imaging.
Its a great scope for experienced imagers, which you will eventually be.
Another great accessory is a Bahtinov mask for your scope, which will make precise
focusing[essential for imaging] simple and quick.
