I have ,as you all know, been a collector of many years and started my scope showings using the Isco gottingen that was bought as a starter kits years ago from Derann and it's still going strong and used today, always been happy with the results to. As you will see from the images here is the lens i use, with a bracket to fit the Elmo ST1200HD perfectly, one simple screw to put it on and remove. Also the original box with that universal bracket. I'm sure it will come in handy one day
Now then, i have read a lot of comments on both channels regarding scope and the scope lens's, my question to all you chaps lucky enough to own the Kowa 8Z is this, I use the Elmo 1:1 lens for projection, being very serious, if i had my scope lens then put up the Kowa 8Z is the difference in image truly that much better?
There are two things here, my old screen is now appearing a little off white, so its time to sort that out, thats easy, however, i have read all about the Kowa 8Z and the price of these is now quite high and i would be mightily peed off if i forked out a few hundred only to watch my scope films and think, Really?
Does anyone on here also use the Isco gottingen and if so how do you personally rate this lens?
It is obvious that a better lens will produce a better and brighter image but exactly how do they compare?
