There are many research grade scopes that provide wide angle field of views.

And speaking of wide angle..

“WASP or Wide Angle Search for Planets is an international consortium of several academic organizations performing an ultra-wide angle search for exoplanets using transit photometry. The array of robotic telescopes aims to survey the entire sky, simultaneously monitoring many thousands of stars at an apparent visual magnitude from about 7 to 13.”
