RE #17: Why not Camo for astronomy? For me, going both sides of focus quickly is handy with central focus bins and astronomy; and Maven is a little stiff for that, but manageable. Yes, agree - Maven marketing is over stated for edge sharpness on the B.5s.

If Maven comes up with a Tak Astronomer-like covering material, that would be good too!

Yes, the Tak Astronomer covering would be great option for stargazers (similar to the Questar). OTOH, with the camouflage covering, if a 8-pt buck comes close to you when your observing on a moonlit night, you won't have to worry about him charging your binoculars.

That is double instability - vibration prone and an increased risk of tipping over.
