I believe so, yes.

The thing about AFOV is that sometimes you find that the extra width isn't particularly useable anyway, with the view fuzzing out towards the edge (especially if you don't have a coma corrector). BTW, I just discovered Mike Salway's review of the GSO here: http://www.iceinspace.com.au/42-236-0-0-1-0.html This is an old review, so I don't know if they have improved at all...
