Thanks for all your help Morton.

I realise now that I meant widefield rather than richfield visual observation. Apologies for confusing the two.

It does sound like the SV48p ($399 minus another 10% on eBay) would work as well for that purpose if not better than the SV503 80 ED ($637.49 minus a $40 coupon on Amazon) due to it's bigger aperture and slightly shorter focal length though it will be challenging on eyepieces at f/5.5.
