Daniel,

I prefer the first one. He looks very relaxed and contented.

I presume you mean a 5 *cm* finder. I would go for a VIOOH or an Imarect or 
one
of the good Russian rotating turrets, much more flexible and only a little 
more
bulky.

If Nathan thinks this is a babe... :-), anyway he normally touts a CL around 
;-)
