Thanks Hopp, no I'm not junking the scopes yet...BUT I would highly recommend anyone who is interested in trying out AP to go with a widefield lens first and work your way into longer focal length scopes (I wish I did)...

Thanks Marc and Luc. I really like this lens. This is full frame and I find the stars maintain their shape to the edge. I posted a "cleaner" image here:
and on my web site.

Nice widefield shot!

That's a lot of detail out of that lens, nice. Marc
