Planetary observations with 4" apo refractors
I've decided to concentrate on planetary observing for now because most of my observing sessions tend to be brief tours of the planets and moon in my backyard and are becoming few and far between, plus it's my main interest anyway. It's a bit difficult to centre a planet in my 8" dob at 250x and I really do need something with quick cool down times, and I like the sharp images of a refractor. Looking at a few reviews on CN and the net in general the Sky-Watcher 100mm ED APO looks like a decent scope at the higher end of my budget. Anyone have any experience with 4" APO refractors for mainly planetary obs?
Cheers
Wade
