Had a look at the moon and Jupiter again last night. Jupiter at 100x show good details, the best I have seen so far,with no hint or visible purple or violet fringing even though Jupiter was very, very bright. The Moon at 50x also shown no visible purple or violet hue.
I had a Televue Pronto 70mm, with which I regularly used 200x for planetary work when the seeing allowed
