This scope has been around for nearly two years. Reviews aren't great,
but typical for the price and wide field. Google is your friend.
The only real innovation is hiding the star diagonal in the main tube.
That's what it says, rich-field!
But is it flat field or what?
Just a plain Fraunhofer achromat and a fast one. Will have a bit of colour, not great for planets.
Fast refractors and wide fields tend to be demanding on eyepieces too.
There is no free lunch.
