Skywatcher Evostar 72ED/Evolux 62 for Deep Sky Astrophotography

[Celestron4]

Has anyone got any thoughts on the Skywatcher Evostar 72ED or Evolux 62ED for Deep Sky imaging? They seem like great scopes at a very reasonable price.

Also, I have a Celestron Nexstar Evolution mount that came with my C6 SCT that I am considering selling. What would be the best way of going about this?

I have the 72ED and its a great scope for the price, you do definitely need the reducer/flattener though if you want your stars sharp anywhere other than in the center of the image. This then does make it quite a bit more of an expensive option....

The Evostar 72 and 62ED are great scopes. I have had the ED72 and recently bought the 62Ed.

I am looking to get hold of a SW 72 ED so I'll keep an eye on this thread.

Most things I've read have been good, as long as you have the budget to stretch to the other bits and bobs that don't come with the scope.
