PS: What kind of foam separation is in your pelican case? The edges look different.
It comes with a Pelican AIR case...padded dividers you can customise. Probably shoot the moon first to assess the colour correction.

Very comparable in size to the Baby Q. Looking forward to a first light report.
I'll probably sell that Baby-FSQ soon. (PM me if you are in the market for a FSQ 85mm) ..the AP has a bit more aperture and focal length, but is not as fast (well, leastways not in its native configuration) but I did also get the AP reducer corrector which makes it a bit faster than the Taka.

Weight is a smidge lighter than the FSQ85mm...about 30 grams

Not cheap to be sure...but the package includes rings and Pelican case.
