, I felt that you would have a view, John. I think that degree of seriousness comes with time, after a learning curve? But I cannot disagree with your recommendation, if one has the money. Morls was pitching at around the $100-120 mark. Also for an 8" collapsible Dob? - I suspect the mechanics won't really do justice to the capability of the high end collimators.
