Many far more experienced than me will surely shortly chime in, but perhaps you could consider a 3.5" FT focuser rather than just 3" one. You wont get vignetting with the 3.5" version and it has a greater lifting capacity.
Also, I would forget the Skywatcher's guide scope and get a dedicated OAG from Moravian.
What are your goals in terms of imaging the night sky?

Hi Slawomir
I had a look at the 3.5" FT but they don't do the adapters I need. I need a M68 and the 3" version has one.
My goals are Deep sky objects and large mosaics, comets with long tails etc. I would like to do comet hunting and I was thinking of going to use the ZWO ASI 1600mm for it as it offers a small field of view and the price is good.
