Ref: Color Correction I see the color correction of the 130GT as being excellent so far; I haven't really cranked up magnification on Vega or Sirius though. No color on any other star visible now in the evenings to midnight and no color on the limb of the Moon at high power (240x-330x). Jupiter is white with ex- cellent contrast of the bands. Jupiter's color is all on the disc, not around it.... Double Cluster has the Red stars stand out easily. I can easily see the red/orange color of Antares and its green companion. As far as Doubles are con- cerned, it easily splits Nu Scorpii when seeing is steady. Using high power terrestrially on pine tree needles against the blue sky in broad daylight shows no purple haze (300-400x). So, color is not an issue for me. BTW I viewed through a TEC160FL for comparison so I am familiar with excellent optics as you are too, judging by your equipment list. I'll try to answer any specific questions, as this was a very general answer. And, the view of the Milky Way impress- ed me by the sharpness and clarity and fine detail visible; I believe a better indication of the excellent optics. Clear Skies, Wes ps. I view stars and planets etc in focus |
