Maybe but I would hate to see the short cuts made to sell a 5 inch APO for 'under a grand' , thanks but I will stick with my 127mm f/8 Istar / saxon thank you very much , nice optics for sure .

Your shots are a great eye opener , but in the 'Blue' looks a bit sad tho ? and its a shame your ED80 was a dud , the one I had ( now sold ) had awesome optics .

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.
