Well the 150 does offer great resolution
of proms & bit more surface detail than expected given the aperture ,
but you guessed it ... the PST wins again for its effortless
FD views

Re: PST v quark at 150
for me it's 2 different scope.
It's like to compare a big dobson and a 4" apo.
The pst will give you a nice full disk, but you can't compare a prom view through a bino.

Re: PST v quark at 150
Nice to se pics of the setup.
I agree that it takes different scopes and/or cameras to do justice on full disk vs high-res close-ups...everyone fine tunes the systems to their neds.
