Video Compare: 152mm f6.5 PST 2 vs. Quark

Post by Starry Jack »

After years, I finally got my PST Stage 2 Mod to work and it's on my f6.5 scope (just in time to sell the Mod).

I've created a <5min video comparing the PST Mod with my Quark. Both are using the 152mm f6/5 achromat with some sample images below.
