Dan, I have the 120mm ed scope with matched reducer/flattener. I used it for my M31 shot

That shot is almost full frame with a little trimmed off the edges where the sub's were stacked. Shot with a full frame Nikon D4.

Should give you some idea of the quality of the SW flattener/reducers.

Cheers

Rob.

Hi,

This is the one I use with my EQ80 & EQ120:

I've been please with the results; it does rectify edge of field distortion. I'm sure others will be able to offer a more critical appraisal than me.
