IMHO - A better imaging scope than a GSO 8" RC... The VMC200L has a much flatter field of view, comes standard with a better focuser, has a dedicated focal reducer available, and will provide a flat field across a 35mm sensor. The same can not be said of the RC... Expect to add at least $400 to the price of the RC for a focuser..
I noticed the VMC200L for sale at Myastroshop and at AOE.. $1200 is CHEAP for these scopes. They are usually more like $1900...
If you've got your heart set on the GSO RC, Andrews has one of the first series GSO RC's for sale at $999... Bargain in any sense of the word...
