Well - Sort of... Roland at Astro-Physics has done a bit of planetary imaging with an Astro-Physics 12" Mak. Results were good, however he is hardly as accomplished as others in the field of planetary imaging (capture and processing) I think in your hands the 12" AP Mak could be insane! I would imagine, knowing what Rolands optics are like, the 12" AP Mak would decimate any mass produced SCT for sharpness and optical quality.
