Hello everyone: I have been reading with interest the posts on televue
poducts and so far am reluctant to order the heavier items due to the size
and weight even though planning to use the everbrite on a 10 inch LX200.
Anyone out there have experience with this combo? If Mr Nagler is listening,
are there plans to reduce the size & weight of these?
