Aries Safix, brief review
(Rod Mollise) wrote in message ...
So far I can say this Safix is one of the most impressive accessories I
have come across in past 15 years and I wam wondering very much, that
there is not yet a Safix hysterical out
Hi Markus:
My results mirror yours. The SAFIX is amazing in what it can do. I was actually
very pleased with the fit and finish, too. No, maybe not quite TeleVue, but
close, certainly. As for why it is not more popular, I'm not sure. Maybe in
part because more people don't know about it... Certainly, it does exactly
what is claimed for it.
I have the impression only one batch (of 50?) was ever made. And, as you
both wrote, it does do what its claims state.
There was mention of it here in SAA what, some 3 years ago now. And there
was a 6-9 month (IIRC) delay before the first (only?) batch was made and
shipped to Astrobuffet (John Hopper's company).
Though you (Rod) posted a review previously and Markus just posted his, more
exposure is definitely needed in the mags. It isn't that expensive. For more
details, see:
