I should note that I have a Celestron FirstScope, being f/3.9, very similar to the scope I'm looking at. It has a spherical mirror, and other than a imperfect final figure, it does give a very nice image at low power using half decent eyepieces, such as a 25mm plossl.

From this I know that a spherical mirror does work with the human eye (at low power), but how would this be with the chip of a video camera considering it is not as adaptive as a human eye?
