Lenses that are great in daytime, or on paper, don’t necessarily translate to a good astro lens. Our objectives are more demanding, as we tend to pixel peep out to the corners.

Thanks Dunk - I guess I was hoping the opposite that the larger sensors would make it better but thinking logically that cant be the case..
Have you had any luck with other lenses on your 1600 ? I'd like to find something that rivals the Samyang 135mm F2 in quality - even if its around the 85mm mark. Macro lenses are supposed to be extremely good out towards the edges but very difficult to fine-focus at infinity.
