As I begin to address the details on a new scope, I find myself curious as to what the current trends are as far as finderscopes. I have my own personal favorites, but it never hurts to see what else is out there. Can list members help? A. What is the aperture of your primary finder? B. Do you use an auxilliary scope? (larger than primary finder, usually much smaller than main instrument) If so, what is it's aperture? I'm not referring to guidescopes used in imaging applications, but a visual auxilliary telescope mounted on the main instrument. C. Do you use a reflex site? (Terad, Starbeam, Quickfinder, Mars-eye, etc.) D. Is your primary finder correct imaging, inverted, or mirror-reversed? E. Finally, what kind of reticle or other cross-hairs do you favor for the finder, if you do? Illuminated? Just an informal poll. TIA. ____________________________________________________________________________________ The all-new Yahoo!
