$479 is a very good price too! Thanks very much.
I agree thanks Terry those shots just about made up my mind for me. The CA in the terrestrial shots seems pretty good to my poor old eyes.

The referred supplier at $479 is out of stock, I wonder how much P&P plus insurance would bump it up ?

Ive got a Sydney store who when asked the price said $799 I mentioned the $479 price and he then spoke to the boss (sound familiar) then said he would do it for $530

Thinking.......
