I know nothing about SCTs really, in fact, I only just borrowed a classic orange c8 from our club's library. and this is my first direct contact with one.
Looking at celestron's modern lineup, I was wondering how something like that one armed nexstar stacks up (optically) to the other celestron 8" SCTs tubes, both this classic one i have and others like the carbon tube ones and all that.
Mounts, carbon, forks vs gems, and goto aside, is the nexstar 8 the same optics as any celestron scts more or less?
Thanks,
