VC200L mirrors need to be returned to Vixen for recoating?
A fellow IIS member, Dave Larkin also has a VC200L, and he recently told me that a friend of his who also has a VC200L had the mirror recoated at a reputable place in Australia. To his consternation, his VC200L will not longer come to a clean focus.
This would corroborate that the final aluminising/coating process actually contributes a unique shape to the mirror surface, so it would appear that VC200L mirrors need to be returned to Vixen for recoating?
Cheers
Dennis
