Neil
I have a Genesis and haven't been able to make the head-to-head comparison against another 4" refractor on planets, as you did. Could you offer some more comments about what the comparison to a 4" f9 ED showed?

I occasionally suspect the same thing you did, that the Genesis due to its f5 configuration is forcing too much glass into the light path for high power views. To be fair this comparison needs to be done using alternate scopes under the same conditions, at the same magnification...
