A 4 or 5" APO is never going to compete with a much larger reflector when it comes to sheer light grasp and thus image brightness and resolution, even when you factor in the reflector's obstruction and greater light loss off the mirrors. But for sharpness and contrast on planetary and wide field photos they do seem to be excellent.
