Going back on topic: over in the ap-ug a few days ago Roland posted an image on Astrobin taken with an AP155GS. When asked about the “typo” (GS not CS), Roland teased “not a typo”question.gif

Dean’s had some great guesses, so Gauss Superachromat is as good as any. I viewed the photo in Astrobin and scrolled down and found “155CS” and not “155GS.” So maybe Roland corrected it and “no typo” is nothing more than playful humor.

I think he was teasing "Gauss" Superachromat. It's changed back to 155CS:  https://app.astrobin.com/i/pgty95

Yeah, Sandy has been harping on this for what seems like years now.  Hopefully he'll be moving on to something else soon.

Sandy is a woman.

I told my self at age 14 i would try em all. Long as i am kicking i will be buying.  

But it's the comparisons that are important, you should have kept then all...  ;)
