The NexStar Evolution 8 203mm Schmidt-Cassegrain Telescope from Celestron is a powerful, portable, versatile, and user-friendly telescope that can be used for observing everything from the Moon and planets to deep-sky objects like galaxies and nebulae. Using Celestron's proprietary StarBright XLT multicoating system, light transmission is increased throughout the entire optical path with antireflection multicoated lenses, highly reflective multicoated mirrors, and four-element rare-earth glass. While the focal ratio is a slow f/10, the scope's precision tracking system allows it to be a competent astrophotography/astroimaging platform for the Moon and planets.

Can I use this with canon 7D mark II to take photos of the moon? Are there better choices?
A Cassegrain type of scope is the ideal scope for astrophotography. In addition to the scope you will need the Celestron f/6.3 Reducer/Corrector
BH #CERC • MFR #94175 and the Celestron T-Ring for Canon EF-Mount Cameras
BH #CETRCAF • MFR #93419. To mount the Canon EOS 7D to the scope.

question
What is the apparent field of view?
So the Apparent Field of View does all depends on the eyepiece. This scope comes with a 40mm and 13mm eyepiece. I am not sure which series eyepiece comes in the box. I would maybe call Celestron directly to see which eyepiece it comes with, and they will be able to know what the apparent field of view is for them. Celestron's Telephone Number: 310-328-9560

question
Can this scope with EdgeHD optics and Evolution mount be purchased without StarSense?
As Harry pointed out, Alex's link is NOT to the same scope. It does NOT have the EdgeHD aplanatic optics. If that's important to you (it was to me), it looks like your choice is Evo mount plus StarSense or getting it with the German EQ mount (#CEAVX8EHD).
