thanks Greg, will look forward to seeing your AP130 images. Funny you mention the stars. After using the riccardi reducer for the last month (and on this and other images here) I swapped back to the straight TS-optics flattener and F6 the last couple of nights... now I know plenty of variables, seeing, greater impact of guiding at longer FL etc, but I dont seem to be getting my stars as tight in the subs... they seem more bloated even with a fair bit of effort focussing... not bad just not as tight as using the reducer ... I'd have expected the opposite... could be the riccardi is just a step up in optilcal quality over the TS flat... it's a step up in price anyway
