I have a 72ed, but the field distortion is too bad, yet it isn't such a good idea to invest in an expensive field flattener for this optical tube

Hence Looking for a reflector telescope (to avoid bad coma/distortion in the field)
in the 450 euro range
in the 600mm range
Use case : astrophotography
Mount : NEQ5 goto, Autoguiding : Zwo asi 120mini
Current Guiding : successful images at 10 min integrations at 420 focal length
And what coma corrector to get with it

There's a cheaper field flattener for the 72ed that doesn't reduce

#

Depending on where you are it's either branded ovl or skywatcher

No wait it's a bit more expensive
