Cheers Scott, have you had a crack at this one with your corneal guided Samson mounted baby? How you travelling mate, feeling any better?

EDIT: Ok, I just read your update in the General Chat, good news, I wish you continued recovery Scotty.

Thanks Fred ... truth be known, I did think of you while processing this little sucker, fondly recalling that narrow field postage stamp imaging phase you went through on theses sort of targets a few years ago

Mate, it was the best few hrs I have ever spent at a scope, was only tiredness that caused me to finish.
