The weakest link in the optical chain is the large nut located directly behind the eyepiece/ camera. - Gabrielle
Ya gotta keep this Apo/Achro thing in some balance of perspective. Apos are awesome, but long focus Achros aren't that far behind them - Siriusandthepup (CN)
Refractors kick arse precisely because they don't hide behind excuses. That is, they have no obstructions to hide behind.

There are also specialty mounts and phone holders to help keep the phone in place over the eyepiece. One of the more elaborate devices: https://www.highpointscientific.com/...-adapter-81055

If there is a lower magnification eyepiece like a 20mm or 25mm you would be better off.
