  4. M104 finally tracked down over the weekend 

    Spent an hour on this one target , trying different lenses with an ST80 

    12mm BST stood up very well against 13mm Baader and ES14/62

    Switched over to ED80 to compare with ST80 - both shown central bulge with averted vision - otherwise no discernible difference
