TV-101, FS-102: side-by-side comparison?

I was hesitant to post this message because I know it has been discussed before, but I, and I think others, were not fully satisfied. I am talking about the comparison between the Televue TV-101 and the Takahashi FS-102. Both high quality 4” APO’s, and yes I am aware they are 2 different scoped and a lot depends on what you are looking for. I have read many review for both that are always great, but I would love to hear about a side-by-side comparison. Anyone ever have the opportunity? How do they match up on planets and standard messier objects? Which one has better color correction? Ed Ting, if you are out there, your reviews are great and I would love to hear what you think (I have a feeling you’d pick the Tak). I know this is splitting hairs (as it was mentioned in another thread) and there is no way you could be disappointed with either. I guess I am just curious how many Tak and Televue fans are out there. So I am asking if anyone has looked through both scopes, I would really like to hear your personal opinions and experiences.

Thanks

I own the Tak FS102, and have compared it to the TV101, TV102, and NP101. At f/5.4, the TV101 is a superb wide field performer in a much smaller, more portable package. The TV102 is a better comparison scope, and I find the color correction to be about equal. The 101's Petzval design should give up a tiny bit of brightness, but it is not a practical loss. The 101's collimation is more complex and best left to Uncle Al. The Tak has a more stout 2.7" focuser, but with added weight penalty. You can skip this comparison by getting the NP101!
