Photography use is limited to lunar/planetary unless you keep to the meridian otherwise rotation is an issue.

If AP of dso's is your thing you would be advised to buy a tube ota and an eq mount. You wouldnt be mounting guide scopes on this dob or hanging heavy cameras off this focuser lest you cause flexure issues in the collapsible poles.

Like I said, it could be good value if the mechanicals and software are solid and serviceable (replacement parts available). I would need to be convinced of that first.
