Hello John, Thank you for the reply. Yes, that does help. It pretty much confirms what I was thinking. The trigger head with a spotting scope sounded like a great idea but I was afraid that it would lack the ability of very fine movement/adjustment. Thanks again! -

Well, the quandary has been quickly resolved. I sent the FS II back. The seller seemed very good about it and asked for info about it so it can be accurately re-listed. I went ahead and pulled the proverbial trigger on the all but brand new 7555 FS III ED 82 angled with a 25-75 MC eyepiece and... -

Hello, Obviously, I am as new as one could possibly be to the site. I do, however, have limited experience with optics and forums. I am a huge procrastinator and often a salesperson's dream (meaning I can get hung up on bells and whistles.. ie ED lenses, coatings, etc,). I bought a used...
