not quite sure about what you mean by auto tracking, if its on an equatorial mount it will track or if you use one of the equatorial platforms you can track for astrophotography.
i use a 12 inch with a solid tube for astrophotography, its a difficult task. personally i wouldnt even try long exposure imaging with the collapsible version i would expect too much flexure. long exposure being several minutes... whats great for visual does not necesarily translate to imaging. mind you, moon etc shoot as many pics as you like.
