Hi,
on my TSA120 I use the TOA35 Reducer at a distance of 83.7mm

With TOA35-RD reducer
Focal length 672mm
Focal ratio F/5.6
Image circle 40mm (60% non-vignetted)
Photo field 3.4° @ 40mm image circle
Spots size 4µm RMS @ center of field
6µm RMS @ 10mm off-axis
13µm RMS @ 20mm off-axis

specs here:

System chart here:

There appear to be a couple of versions, mine is cat no: TKA31580S
The difference is a sort of extension on the reducer.
Fields are essentially flat and stars are round to the edge of my ST8300C camera. I haven't tried any bigger chips.

Hope this helps
cheers
Gary
