Funnily enough, it is looking rather smart on my bookshelf and it's doing a
fine job of propping up my books.
Now, it cost me next to nothing and it's blowing my mind with how
beautifully made and rock steady the whole rig is; there has to be a way of
extending its useful lifespan.
I have the double cable release you mention, (Nicest, most
functional cable I've ever seen) which of the Viso lenses would I be able
to use? Are they worth the bother or are they just rather grand looking
timepieces? I have no experience with any of the longer lenses.
What do you reckon to your 200 and 280 Telyts?
Anyone else out there using Viso lenses on a Viso 1 ?
Thanks,
Jae
