Hi Wade,

Congratulation to your new telescope.  

Here is an image scanned from a test report in 2002/12 Temmon Guide magazine:
http://www.ifa.hawaii.edu/~wang/misc/FSQ106_image_circle.jpg
The picture is taken by FSQ106 and a 4x5 camera.  Each grid in the image is
1cm in size.  The 60% illumination circle officially claimed by Tak is 88mm.
According to this test report, with Pentax 67 adapter the full image
circle is 108mm.
Without the adapter, it's 114mm.  Both numbers are greater than the
width of 4x5
film.

Cheers,

Wei-Hao
