What size focuser does your Tak 120 have?

2.7 inch focusers are limited to what size ccd chip you can use. It may be too small for the STL11 and limited to APS sized chips (24x16mm).

Same with C11 and whilst a generality SCTs are not ideal for astrophotography due to mirror flop, off axis poor performance.

Tak 120 could be awesome with the right camera. 8300 chipped camera would be safe as its a one size fits almost any scope type chip (not so ideal for long focal length scopes though unless you have under 2 arc sec seeing).

Greg.
