Going DEEP with a Ritchey-Chrétien Telescope
In this video, I use a new Ritchey-Chrétien telescope, the iOptron Photron RC6. I'll cover the advantages and disadvantages of using a telescope like this for astrophotography. Full Post: astrobackyard.com/ritchey-chretien-telescope/ My final image of the Pinwheel Galaxy should give you an idea of the image scale you can expect with a DSLR camera.

Ritchey-Chrétien telescopes by GSO, Guan Sheng Optical, are a popular option in the medium price range.

With this issue corrected, they are good telescopes with excellent value (I use an RC myself in my own observatory), but the baffling design flaw introduces significant problems "as-purchased", especially during bright moonlight. And yes, it's pronounced Chrétien, not "Cratien", not "Creeshen"….
