Orion Astroview 120ST

Posted By Dave Cuthbert

Can anyone tell me how well the 120ST works with the aperature stopped down? I was told the lens cap has a 55 mm aperature stop to run it at F11. I was thinking of getting the 120ST, using the 55 mm aperature stop and a V-filter to reduce the chromatic aberration. I plan to run a 5.1 mm ED eyepiece at X118. Does this sound like a plan for the moon and planets?
