hi larry its a APM 152ED 6 inch doublet. some say semi-apo but star tests show chromatic aberration minimal, I say Apo. i love refractors. mount is a Mach2 from Astro-Physics, first AP mount i have owned and it is exquisite. i used to do astro photography but that just took too much time and effort, it’s difficult. this scope is very reasonable for an Apo but as i cannot control myself i ordered my forever scope a TEC 180FL (Florite triplet), about a year wait. looking into night vision setup which increases aperture some say up to 100x. thats a big big scope…Very nice. How big is the refractor? Looks like a very good sized one for an amateur instrument. Also takes time to set up the equatorial mount accurately. Larry (retired astronomer)
