uhmmm I disagree with you. IMHO the FS 78 is better than TV85. I compare this two and in contrast, resolution and image detail the little Tak is a winner . Yep I got one and it´s my precciooooouuuuuuuuuussss!

An astronomer fellow in a club that I have visited several times has a Tak TSA 102 and a FS78. We observed together in several nights and I had the chance of compare my TV85 against this two very great Tak scopes.

With respect to the FS 78, while an awesome scope, I can`t say that it outperforms the TV85. The TV85 was a little brighter, obviously in reason of its bigger aperture, and the Tak showed a bit less CA (although the TV85 showed too little so that it matters), I suposse for its minor aperture and longer focal length. Both of them yields beautiful, contrasting and sharp images in each target. But the FS78 seemed to me big and cumbersome for its aperture.

And look in this review how good -according the reviewer- is the TV85 when it compares to the legendary Astro-Physics Stowaway 92mm.

It is NOT possible that you or anybody can be wrong with the Televue 85.
