    The Saxon 200DS Astrophotography Newtonian Reflector Telescope - OTA is great for prime-focus photography.

    The saxon 200DS Astrophotography combines a 200mm (8") aperture and 1000mm focal length, ideal for prime-focus, DSO photography and planetary viewing. The dual-speed focuser offers improved control over focusing at the optimal focal point to produce sharper views and images. If you want to go a step further, add in the saxon F5 Newtonian Coma Corrector to capture pin-point stars while reducing coma inherent to newtonian reflectors.
