Since I am an LTM user as well, the idea of a IIIa or IIIc with the compact Skopar appeals to me a great deal. I have the distinct feeling that I won't be second guessing my self if I got one, and wondering if the Heliar might not have been a better choice! Thanks again- Your experiences have once again, as always, made a transition easier!
