Great to see you back imaging Raymo. I know what you mean by the weight of those bigger scopes ( and mounts ) the smaller outfits are just so much easier to move around. I even think you're more inclined to use it more often because there is less effort involved. Don't give up on the AP, that 5 inch f5 Achro looks like it will be a nice scope to use. Not any CA noticeable either, so it might be worth trying on some more challenging objects. Well done on making the effort. I have achieved some pleasing results with my 4 inch f5 so the extra aperture will give you a longer focal length without sacrificing light gathering ability.
