Imagers should wait a bit, the jury is still out on the objective. Skywatcher has taken the position of refusing to talk about the glass used in its latest scopes ( including the ED150). They are now pitching the ED150 as a purely visual scope, and early reviews report CA visually. The 72ED will not have the ED100 type objective (being FPL-53). If your looking for an imaging scope of this size I would look elsewhere. Whether that is WO TS, Sharp Star, AstroTech, etc, they all have good equipment available and will tell you about the objective.

This one probably has one of the best Doublet objectives in this size class:

With both reducers and flattened available.
