Im really not sure which one to buy. including the field flattener the WO is 960$, and the ZWO is 1000$ with a built in flattener. the ZWO is a QUINTUPLET for only 1000$, but that makes me question the overall quality of the telescope, WO has a great reputation and their telescopes are known to be great, I'll be using the HEQ5 mount so it'll be able to handle both with ease, what should I do?

Now this is a hard choice, ZWO reputation with cams are incredible, but WO has a incredible reputation for good quality scopes, i dont see many people using the ZWO scopes, maybe look on astrobin for some reference images, but off of a whim id pick WO ZS73 but thats only because i like WO for scopes more, but take what i say with a grain of salt

I just had a look on astro bin, theres only 2 images taken with the ZWO scope so its really hard to say

Note: The ZWO FF65 scope is also the Askar 65PHQ which has been out for some time with ample reviews and images available.
