I'm a firm believer in the ability of an observer to see difficult/extremely faint objects through relatively modest apertures, the difference is you gotta know what you're doing and how to make the most of the scope and conditions
Legendary seeing eh...as far as Melbourne is concerned this failure of a season, the ability to resolve stars into pinpoints at anything above 100x is to be considered legendary
