For my 6" (re-badged Meade) I ended up buying a baader 'fringe killer' filter (for getting rid of most of that purple fringing), a baader contrast booster & a baader UHC-S filter for nebula (really enhances some nebula's like M42).

The cheshire collimator really comes into it's own on refractor collimation.

A high quality star diagonal is a must on one of these baby's. The standard 1.25" that came with mine I thru over my shoulder after using it for 30 seconds & got a decent 2" one.

Have fun with those pin-point stars mate! Your gonna love it!!
