WO Megrez 90 vs Ikharus 102


Recommended Posts

I'm looking around for a good APO Refractor for DSO imaging and have seen:

WO Megrez 90

William Optics - William Optics Megrez 90 APO

Ikharus 102

And at Astrofest I saw this Ikharus 102mm from Ian King and it looked very good but I had never heard of it so held off buying it.

IKHARUS Telescope and Accessories from Ian King Imaging

Optically, is there really enough to justify WO's difference in price?

Alternatively for a scope/flattener I have a budget of £900. Would people recommend one of the above (or any other I have not listed).

PS: I plan on adding a Atik 314L+ with a filter wheel later.

Thanks.

I asked about the Ikharus 102 a while back and was recommended the Revelation 100mm f6 ED sold by Telescope House. Good price and one member who had experience with it reckoned that the colour correction was excellent. In the end I went for this instead: TS APO Triplet 90/600mm with Carbon tube - FPL53 color free

I'm pretty sure it would be good for photography as it excels at visual with no false colour at all and exceptional performance. Just another alternative...
