Much better. Easier to navigate and better presented to boot.
Well done Mike, Don, Michael & Mick.

Excellent, overdue but a great outcome. Nice looking site.
A minor thing, but maybe a bit of SEO work still required. I typed "Solar Filters" and it returned no results. I had to type "Solar Filter" for it to find it.

Much, much better! This was long overdue.
Now, if only Lee Andrews would do something similar… 
Cheers

Much easier to navigate. Still a bit pricey though!

It will fit.
I used one on my old 715 and, AFAIK, they have the same back..
Make sure it holds the diagonal good and tight tho'. I almost binned mine when it wouldn't focus - then noticed I hadn't tightend it properly!

Earlier this week there were problems with the online purchase. Don told me it was the result of some changes they had asked for having a knock-on effect. They are aware of it so I expect it will be fixed soon - if not already. I didn't even get a Success message so I phoned and got it cleared up. (My moon and OIII filters are on the way.)
BTW if you get a bloke called Chris on the phone give the little rodent a hard time for me.
