Thats the best news I have heard for some time. When can we place our order?
On the subject of the old ATM, one of the things that has ticked me off
on occasion has been the lack of completness in some of the articles,
for example, the other day I was in Efston Science, Toronto, and picked up
some of the back issues ($6.95 @) for a great article on the Pretoria
eyepiece. If I cannot purchase one, as U.O. no longer carries them, and the
owner seemed a bit perturbed when I asked (seems he had a lot of them at fire
sale prices just to get rid of them) maybe with a bit of care I could make one.
Well the article has all the curves and glass types, but no inter lens spacing.
Maybe someone here has a 28mm Pretoria and wouldn't mind taking it apart and
measuring all of the inter lens spacings. BIG :-)
Or maybe someone wants to get rid of one. Fat chance! :-(
What can ya do?
Waiting for the skies to clear
