Sorry David, I thought you were aware of the site:

Go to: Forum - testing of optics - optical directory reports(top of page)

In the image below, the top star test is without a prism - note the greater red fringe inside focus. The bottom star test is with a prism and the colors are brought closer together:

In the next image, note the change in strehl ratios for the different colors - this test is done without changing focus. When focus is changed to suit each color the strhl ratio is high for all colors for the ed80:

Note: the above is my interpretation of the article - I'm no expert.
