I currently use it on a ED80 and is pinpoint to the corners and you can buy a camera rotater for it.
You can find specs on the Hutec site.

Hi Zane,
darn, didn't think of the Borg. I am trialing a TMB triplet 80, and the centre is stunning, with flocks of migrating seagulls at the corners. I tried the AP67CCD Telecompressor, and also the Baader MP Coma Corrector, both singly and in combinations, and neither helped at all. The best star images were without, BUT they showed the aforementioned coma.
I had resolved to the Televue, but may try a Borg, thanks.
Gary
