ACF and EDGE HD scopes with DSLR

A question for those that have a Meade 8" ACF or Celestron edge hd 8" scopes. Will these scopes cover a DSLR or QHY8 chip without elongated stars edge to edge? Ie does it have a flat field with these scopes?
Thanks, Allan

this is unguided, but you'll see there's no splayed stars at the edge.
I do like the fact that the image stays flat as I can stitch mosaics with no hassle either - the moon is a stitched 2 shot
