Thanks Paul and S... the Astrodons certainly are getting the thumbs up.

Attached is a star whose apparent magnitude is 8.686, as captured in my recent effort on NGC 300. As you can see there's a reasonable halo on both the blue and green filters, red not so much.

Could I expect better performance from the Astrodons, or is this simply to be expected?

Edit: Based off Paul's NGC 253 with stars of a similar mag, looks like I could expect better performance with the Astrodons.
