Re: [ATM] 7 inch sphereical mirror

Matt, all:

I believe that the field of view of even a 1/2" eyepiece would not show coma 
with a dinky f/10 mirror; not so as you would really notice, anyway.

A tiny amount, for sure. But not enough to be objectionable. Most eyepieces 
introduce it anyway; that would probably be the culprit for coma.
