26mm Nag & R/C on 10-11-12" SCT's?

Hello Group,

Has anyone tried the new 26mm Nagler with an f/6.3 R/C on a
medium/large SCT? Does it vignette?

My 27 Panoptic works well with the R/C, giving me 1.0 degree tfov on my NS11.

The 35 Panoptic gives 1.35 degree tfov with f/6.3 R/C but vignettes badly.

The 26mm Nagler should give 1.21 degree tfov with the R/C but the question of vignetting remains.

The question has some relevance because Santa MIGHT be real generous this year......

Thanks,

Ed
