Skip Williams wisely said, "Big lenses
have a way of being conspicuous while
little ones can come and go clandestinely.
Amen to that. I chanced into a humomgous

FWIW - Every comment I've read about mirror optics bemoaned the 'donut'
reflections and the dim view.The beattie screen John H. installed makes
focusing a snap, and I
was amazed to find how sharp and clear the in-focus images are... and that you
can
avoid the 'pastry-shop' background if you
work at it. A solid tripod is a must have.
