I would choose stability over the slight edge on aperture the LX90 12" has , think it would be fine for visual , unlike the 12'lx200 it sits on the standard field tripod and the fork arms don't look particularly overwhelming for the OTA. I have a 10"LX200 and just started out imaging with a DSLR , there's a lot to learn and its tough to produce acceptable images through the SCT and i mainly use a 80mm refractor piggyback for imaging as i climb the learning curve . The pointing accuracy of the scope has always amazed me , sometimes I haven't even checked while centering after a GOTO to check if a object is suitably framed and gone ahead with the image.
