Except planet and lunar spotting, can you use a Maksutov telescope for other objects as well? - spotting telescope reviews

On Wikipedia says Maksutov telescopes are good for planetary and lunar observation. But he said, are not suitable for astrophotography. I'm not interested, but I also see a few Messier objects, plus planets and moon.

Spotting Telescope Reviews Except Planet And Lunar Spotting, Can You Use A Maksutov Telescope For Other Objects As Well?

not say. he said, with reason, not suitable for off-road * * Astrophotography. If you have pictures of galaxies and clusters, and the little things help. If you have a picture of the nebula North America to another service both wider and faster f ratio to be used.
because they are obviously a beginner, do not even want to think about astrophotography. The point is moot, and is for some time.
As always, the best approach to this problem in contact with local astronomers and see for yourself. Has anyone ever actually do?
Of course, you can observe a Maksutov-Cassegrain Telescope Deep Sky Objects like Messier. Can also be used for astrophotography. It's just that it is far less than optimal uses an MC. Due to the long focal length, has a relatively narrow, then it is better for small objects like planets and double stars. Also great for small items, the deep-sky objects such as planetary nebulae and globular clusters.
Maksutov telescope instruments are generally decent. What items can be seen from the nature of the telescope, but (especially) in his opening. Many bright Messier objects with binoculars (M31, M42, M8, etc.), so it is easy to see even see a little MAK too. But smaller objects such as M51 or M104, require a clear sky and an opening large enough (diameter of the collection of light opening) to see the photons in the eyepiece. A 90-mm Maksutov is limited in this respect. A 10-inch Dob would be able to reveal objects much smaller eye.
Remember that the increase is not significant. M31, for example, has taken on a moonlight. From here you can see if their eyes were 10 cm in diameter. But you may have difficulties that day.
The smaller objects and the brightest, perhaps. It could be the stars split doubly useful! A joint exercise between the fans of those days.
Of course, crashed through the window of the neighbor.
