Hi Alex,
yes, the tripod in the picture (Berlebach Planet) is part of the package.
Imaging should be possible with this rig (going by the capabilities of mount and OTA) but I'm not qualified to assess its virtues or drawbacks. The OTA weighs 6.5kg, about half of what the HEQ5 Pro can carry. With imaging gear etc. it'll come closer to 10kg, I suppose.
The thing to remember is that it would be a fairly narrow-field imaging setup (1800mm f/12), with all the inherent difficulties that entails.
