The ETX will be a bit of a challenge but not impossible. It has along focul length that will make things harder. A guy in our club does sensational imaging with a DSI 2 and 3 using an LX200R but when he goes away in his caravan takes his ETX125 and gets great results but he is a very experienced imager and uses a focul reducer. I love using mine for grab and go visual stuff. Planets,moon and brighter deep sky stuff is sensational. The optics are spot on and have really impressed me and alot of other people who have looked through it. Execellent on planets but you will be limmited to about 250X magnification before image breakdown because of the small aperature. The goto works real well and if your drives are trained it will always put the target in the field of view. I am going to use mine with a astro video camera to chase down the fainter fuzzies. I have no experience with them and imaging but for visual use and 5 inch size it is a sensational little scope.
