I tend to agree that the weight is going to be a factor to consider - and I would be interested to see how portable it is compared to the 12".

I'll stick to my 12" for the moment.

Cheers Petra

Also, getting the stripped down 12" scope into my Kia Shuma is quite a challenge, bearing in mind 2 passengers, suitcases, food, wife's stuff. A 16 inch would be impossible in my car, I fancy!
