Actually on that I had a sweet Takahashi M210 that was so sharp you could have sworn you were looking through a quality APO but , I hjated the diffraction spikes it gave to bright objects , some don't mimd but I don't like them so sold it to get my C9 , its 1/2 the price and 99% of the Tak's performance .

Brian .

ps. I don't mind a little CA ( iStar achromat ) so go figure ?
Exactly Brian ..its what makes YOU HAPPY..dont have to buy a big name sometimes just for bragging rights..more of whats real at the ep..and what many others have said about the aforementioned scopes.
