Well that is what I get with my new 8" F6 TMB achromat and a Chromacor. Anyone else tried this?

Oops, my comments regarding the performance of the 8"F12 D&G were with the Chromacor, didn't make that clear.

Hi Doug.
Technically speaking, what you have is an 8" achromat, with a Chromacor at the back. wink
Not a Petzval design.
