  Greetings
 Has anyone used the Sky-Watcher 12” Quattro Imaging Newtonian with coma corrector?
Looks like a great deal for the size. Cannot find any reviews.
Thanks
Tom

Hello John
 I would use it mostly for DSLR astro photography.
I did find a review that stated there were issues with autoguiding. Flexure with the guide scope setup. I think that would depend on how you mount it.
 Thanks

  Hello Mark
Wow! Thank you for the very informative review of the 12" Quattro.
 Your images are great, really find the de-fraction spikes desirable  these days.
Using an ES127 ED-APO, it gives me very good images. Trying out a little WO 51 RedCat, very fun to play with.
 Set up now with a WO 61 ZenithStar  and SSAG for guiding. It's a great combination sitting on my Orion HDX110.
Have been contemplating an RC 12" truss tube, but the Quattro is much more affordable for the aperture.
  Sticking with the DSLR's for now, and sounds like the focuser is capable of handling the weight.
Looks like there is a 12" Quattro in my future.
 Thanks again and keep those fantastic images coming.
Tom
