Just remember for imaging you have to add in addition to the OTA , imaging camera , coma corrector , adapters , guide scope , guide camera , focuser, dew straps , mounting plates , cabling and so on.... so another 4 or 5 kg !!!!

As I mentioned previously an 8” f5 newt is the ideal beginner to intermediate scope for imaging ( and visual ) on that mount
Understood i was just thinking loud. I forgot about the best F5 focal lenght for AP.

I will stay with the 8 newt. Now i have to resist not to buy the SkyWatcher, since the Bintel ones they don't have stock until march/april 2022
