Forget about the square stars...I keep looking at those galaxies...who cares about those stars.
Yeh I agree, the square stars and random star spike internal refections are easily over looked with time, you'll see. It will be hard for an impending APO user I know, just take it image by image, it's called diffraction spike de-sensitization
Yes indeed fantastic. Yes also very expensive, however compared to a RCOS 12.5 inch http://www.rcopticalsystems.com/12inch.html
base price over 17 grand US its a bargain. Its also FAR faster then the RCOS, allowing much wider field imaging in a fraction of the time. Thus if I won lotto Id go for the ASA rather then the RCOS, and plonk it on a Losmandy Titan mount.

Yes very nice images ,i dont have a ASA but at least i have got my stl11000...oh and i have one of the worlds finest mirrors coming...a ZAMBUTO 12.5.
