Drat---The perils of Covid and travels. I'd be on Paxlovid within an hour or
two, but circumstances make that a bit easier. Round six immunization for me
next Friday as well as for Marnie.

nothing.
The new version has to be set greater than 210mm for the TC to be able to be
attached. Indeed the old version went to 1:4 natively and the new 1:2.The
previous version had 20 elements in 13 groups but can not find any data on
construction or MTF on the new version. They curiously do not claim a massive
redesign and one wonders if they just changed the helicoid for closer focus and
modified the mechanics so the TC could be attached. That seems like the heights
of laziness, so more likely expect some changes. Is it a MZ 100-400 killer???
