Whilst the KAF8300 might show very good blue filter images the Sony 694/674 may very well not. One would really need to see the corrected specs of the scope to know for sure.

I don't do visual, just imaging ( personal use only), again I'm happy with the scope.
Qhy9 uses the 8300 chip ( mono) previously used a qhy8 which had a 6 meg chip color.
As you say you can find a chart showing the focus of colors, I know I've looked at the one for my 132, a comparison between the two could be usefull .....and from experience I can definitely confirm Ha doesn't focus amongst the pack.
