From an Astromart Classified:

The Antares 1056 is a pretty "fast" telescope that is well suited to wide field observations of the heavens. Despite its short focal length, the Low Dispersion Achromatic objective performs well with less chromatic aberration (false color) compared to other competitor's telescopes on brighter objects.


This is new to me: Low Dispersion Achromatic Objective.

We have

APO
Semi-APO,ED
Low Dispersion Achromat
Achromat

What is next, a well corrected spherical paraboloid?
