This is what was trying to get across .

The CA is that slight its irrevelovent in my eyes .
On that the photo of 3rd quarter is almost identical to the absolutely beautiful image my TV Radian 14mm throws up , same image scale and lack of CA or any other aberrations as this shot shows , just beautiful .

On that , this is a $630 OTA not !! a 5k +APO .
One more thing I hear you on the cost thing , my Takahashi Mewlon 210 is perfect in every way .

You can pick up a nice APO for under $1k these days, don't have to spend a fortune. I got a 90mm - F/7 last year to use with my OSC as the ED80 had bad color correction. You get green around the limbs because the blue doesn't focus where the red and green are. If you shoot mono it's still not as sharp as an APO but you can manage colors betters with a filter wheel.
