Cel. 80ED or Cel. Onynx 80EDF

Celestron Onyx 80EDF - 80mm f/6.25 Fluoro-ED Refractor $399

Celestron 80mm ED - f/7.5 Refractor $429

I can't believe I am going to buy a refractor. I've always been a SCT-guy. Anyone have experience or knowledge on these products. The Onyx price has been slashed. Normally it is the more expensive scope. I am interested in visual on everything astro for now. Eventually, I envision this being mounted in tandom with a larger refractor. Astrophotgraphy = yes.
Thanks,

I have owned the Celestron 80ed. Excellent color
correction and a very sharp image. The weak part
about the scope is the focuser, but if your buying a used one and getting a deal, say around $300, you cant complain
The Onyx is much nicer fit and finish wise, with a better focuser. The Onyx, now at $399 is an f6.25 compared to the 80ed's f7.5, so I would guess maybe not as good on the false color. Both scopes are good for the money.
