Astrophotography Upgrade

Hey all,

I am currently thinking about upgrading my photography setup. i currently use an ED80 on an EQ6 mount, and use the orion mini auto guider for guiding, and Nikon d5500 to take the pics.

I am wanting to start using CCD, and upgrade my scope. i have decided on the Skywatcher BD MAK 127 6" F/11. I know that you need to get the specifics right when buying a CCD to ensure it matches the scope. but i am not too sure what i should be looking at? I was aiming for a mono, price range up to $5000 (including filter wheel).

Also, does this scope require off axis guiding?


Sorry i am all new to this
