Don't get exited, it was my neighbors door knob. But here goes: no false color, image was sharp, I did detect a foreign object on the lens, had to unscrew cell and blow off speck. I did detect finger prints also, turned out to be on the door knob. This was done about 8pm PST, lots of cloud cover, typical for Portland this time of year, should only last 4-5 more months. This was on a Vixen GP, mount was rock solid, no vibration pads needed. I had to pull out my cheap diagonal and 25mm plossl (the ones that came with my 9.25) so I wouldn't leave any marks on my AP maxbright. I would like to know what I should do as far as the focuser, nylon screws? or is there an adapter that will screw on to focuser with brass compression ring? Thanks for reading my review. Dave
