Thanks Andrea.I have to admit that I was worried that the F6.3 OD250L was going to be a monster! And that it could be difficult using it on Solar system bodies, especially when we consider the height of the eyepiece and focuser, with subjects like the Moon during winter.I think that I will probably ask John at OO for the OD250S. I can then use this telescope for deep sky observing from home, and also the peak district as well as Lunar and Planetary observing. Do you know if the F4.8 suffers badly with coma?
