Prism Diagonal Anti Chromatic Aberration Effect?
That's true, Alan, from what I've seen in other's refractors....
somehow the refractor does seem to benefit from a slightly sharper (and perhaps a tad more contrast) pin-points than our 'mack truck' reflectors of much larger size....but I wonder if a larger refractor...say a 20 or 30 inch glass, would still hold those sharp pin-points for stars? I really don't know, never having had the priviledge of looking thru one. But have to admit, you are correct. (But I could have never afforded a 30 inch portable refractor.....even if they made them!) Clear Skies, Tom W. Alan W.

Razor-sharpness and contrast second to none? ...precisely. Alan |
