I was thinking it might be good on the TEC180. Perhaps with a Riccardi reducer or the AP 155TCC with the appropriate length extension tube. That would make it around F4.5 and 180mm. That could be good.

Thanks Jase - am still trying to understand colour processing/stretching, so hopefully will be able to improve the colour depth.
