I'm contemplating getting a 12" or larger GSO RC OTA from Andrews Comms.

Are these scopes up to par with other RC's? I know you get what you pay for, but aren't GSO scopes ideal for a DSLR or CCD camera?

Also, if imaging with a chip smaller than 24x36mm on a RC, do I need a Field Flattener and or Focal Reducer? Who makes them?

In re the FR, what is best for an RC and what focal ratio and AoI (Area of Illumination) will I reach?

Thanks,

James
