Bintel Imaging Newt vs Skywatcher BD Newt

Hi all

Your thoughts would be appreciated on the following scopes:

1. Bintel branded 10" f4 imaging newt link here.

2. Skywatcher Black Diamond 254 x 1200P link here

Intended use is for both imaging and visual on an eq6.

My questions are:

Which is the better brand?
Is the Bintel imaging scope any good for visual?
Apart from the shorter focal length what are the main differences between an "imaging" newt and a std newt?
Is the Skywatcher scope any good for imaging?

cheers

John
