Bill: My interest will always be in either a 127 ED or a 150 - 153 ED. A focal length of about F8 is preferable. Anything longer becomes too much to mount...
Bill, Do the Planetary IIs have the barrel cutouts? Hopefully not...they are a pain to use with a binoviewer. Charles ... and very late. Our office in China...
Charles, I thought Bill said that if you don't like the cutouts you just unscrew the barrel and screw it in upside down, getting rid of the problem. (That is,...
Donald, I'm trying to visualize...how does flipping the barrel get rid of the problem. Does not the cutout remain?..unless the barrel is long enough as to...
A narrow groove incorporated into the barrel whose purpose is to capture the set screw. Some swear by them as a safety feature...I swear at them as they...

Bill, Count me in for either this 6" or the 140mm PH. I need a little more comparison information regarding planetary performance between the two. Charles ......
Bill, Here's a product idea that I think you could do well with: An ED upgrade kit for the ever popular 120ST. It would be a 120mm f/5 ED doublet compatible...
... THEY ARE AWESOME? Here is the next ... $60.00 (Limit 2)? Hi Bill, I'm interested in ordering a 6mm Planetary II. Hopefully i am one of the first 200....
