Yes my Stellarvue F80M has the same arrangement, I use a 16mm Nagler or 19mm Panoptic in mine for a 4deg field at 19x and 16x respectively. I'm still not used to reversed images in refractors and SCTs when using a standard diagonal but at higher powers it's not so much a problem. I still prefer the views through a Newtonian though because at worst they are only upside down (usually sideways) and not reversed so it's just a matter of tilting the head or rotating the star chart.
