Mr Moocher put me on to this one... something I have wanted for the past 3 years... and now that dream is a reality..

TMB 105/650 - Review

Happiness is a TMB..

"Hands down, my TMB 105/650 has the best-corrected optics of any refractor I have yet been able to look through and test. John Ford's review on this site of his TMB 105/650 describes a variety of optical tests in great detail. My testing yielded duplicate results, providing convincing evidence that Thomas Back's design and rigorous test criteria are producing an extremely consistent product of the highest quality." - CN review

Having used one similar, it's astonishingly good... hope the FF will give the EOS and 8300 some good imaging..

Next step an 8300 :-)

Some report there Nick, made me fall in love too, but out of my league unless Camelot intervene. The Review is 6 Years old, but still as valid today no doubt.

Ah! The last dog walk of the day cleared the memory block, so all is understood.
