Hi, I just mentioned it as something you should check. All SCT's that focus by moving the main mirror have it to some extent but this doesnt mean it's unuseable. Plenty of people image using Meade and celestron SCT's. Also there are strategies to minimise the shift and Crayford style focussers are not that expensive.
