yep, and yep.
If you find it awkard to get you head to it, as the stalk is made from plastic, it is a simple task to cut and add an extension to it.
The 'block' is a dove tail block that stays on the scope. The RDF stalk has a dovetail that slides into it.
The magnified optical finder is good too. As it collects more light than our own eyes, they are useful in finding faint targets where there may not be enough naked eye stars to make using the RDF alone an easy task. That is why I use both on my big dob.
