After having a look through Chris's beautiful Mewlon-210 few nights ago and having the best views of 47 tuc/M42/ etc... I was wondering if there were any Cassegrains, Mak's etc... which would be comparable (ofcourse not exact) to the Mewlons in terms of contrast (the Mewlon was velvet-black) and image quality (the 8" performed like a 12" dob!).
I never realised how bad the contrast is in my LB scope until I looked through Chris's Tak, I'll never look at my dob in the same way again (thanks Chris
).
