He already owns a 12" Dob according to his sig, which is why I suggested to use an off axis stop too simulate what he would see through an unobstructed 120mm aperture .

In my experience 8" aperture is where the utility starts for a scope on all different kinds of visual objects. Resolution is obviously far superior with a large well collimated quality optics.
