Advice choosing OTA for Astrotrac

[Specman]

I started this thread in MOUNTS but as that is now sorted I thought I would move over to Scopes as its more appropiate and I might get more replies.

So I now have the following:

• 1 x NEW AstroTrac TT320X-AG
  
• 1 x AstroTrac Polar Scope
  
• 1 x Manfrotto 055XPROB Tripod
  
• 1 x Manfrotto 496 RC2 Ball Head
  
• 1 x Manfrotto 410 Junior Geared Head
  
• 1 x AstroTrac 8xAA Battery Holder & Lead
  

And purchased today:

• 1 x Astrotrac TH3010 Head Package
  
• 1 x Vixen-type saddle for Astrotrac TH3010 head
  

So as a small portable refractor for Astro photography / viewing I'm thinking of the following:

WO Megrez 72 FD DDG APO

First Light Optics - William Optics Megrez 72 FD DDG APO

with

WO x0.8 Reducer

First Light Optics - William Optics 0.8x Reducer III (2011)

Any thoughts?

A Canon 200mm prime has been considered but I think that the little WO scope will be more useful maybe.

Anything else I might consider? I'm open to suggestions.

Cheers

Mark

I'd keep with the William optics 72 but there is a newer one by WO that's suppose to be better. I can't think of it now as I'm on my phone

With the 72 you will need the field flatter though
