Re VC200L collimation.

It's not particularly difficult, in fact, easier than an RC by a fair amount. Good thing about the VC200L is once it is spot on, it'll stay there indefinitely unless you bump the snot out of it. Vixen's collimation guide is good, especially the visual collimation guide. Vixen recommends NOT to use a laser.

I have only had to collimate a VC200L once, and I have had 4. It took roughly an hour to get pot on, using eyeball collimation. With the laser, you end up chasing your tail too much.
