Jamie Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 IMHO thats too much scope for that mount mate. :)You have a lot to live up to cos i have seen that scope in the handsof a good imager and seen his images. (it will surprise you) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GordonCopestake Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 Actually you might find you need to take your counterweight shaft off as that alone might be too heavy hehehe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lunator Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 JamesNice set ip there no chance of any wobbles..............If you can't get the balance right get another 80mm f5 and have a semi-apo binocular setup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
