Should I buy a 31mm Nagler?

Posted By Bill Byrd

I chose the 26mm....a little less $ and the exit pupil better matched my eye's max iris opening. It's a great EP!
I've never looked through a 31mm but I had a 35mm Pan before I got the 26mm.

DSC Stalk

Posted By Bill Byrd

Here's a close up of the lower end of the stalk. The bottom of the tube is notched to fit snuggly inside the handle at the bottom. Note the EP holder...it has hinges that allow it to fold flat for transport. Much easier to put it in the pole bag that way.

That's the satellite that fell over because someone forgot to reinstall some bolts before they moved it. DOH!
