I saw the FLT-132 at an astrophotography conference in Belgium November last year. Impressive scope, but don't fool yourself, its not light. For visual work you'd be ok with the EQ6. Imaging would require something more substantial to provide accurate tracking with this scope. You also need to consider the use of a field flattener if you intend to use large format CCDs. Personally, I have my reservations on TMB optics.
