    How next system shall work

    The TLS APO 23 has been designed for Micro Four Third cameras (the 43 is for full frame). The 2x crop of micro Four Thirds will get you "up close and personal" with most subjects. The Focus Peaking feature makes manual focussing very easy.

    I photographed this gull in Hong Kong (Mai Po) a few years ago and had it down as a Relict Gull. Not as likely as a Black-headed Gull I suspect. Can anyone confirm?

    old 20x SW eyepiece still useful now that the 25-50x is out there?
