Re: [APML] Ideal Telescope (was M31 Mosaic project)



Roland,
 
    Since "you're the man"... what we all want is a 12" f/10 Maksutov with minimum secondary obstruction and flat field to cover at least a 35mm, a first focal reducer that fits between the filter wheel and the CCD camera (less vignetting from the filters this way) that will bring the light beam down to f/8, and a second one that will bring the light beam down to f/6. I don't think cost would be an issue... we all have wives and homes that we could sell...
