I went to use my 80ED last night and the grips fell off both focus
knobs! They were perished-looking and had both snapped. My ED is mounted on an LX200 in a roll-off observatory. It can't be heat (never gets hot) so I assume recent frosts must have done the damage (despite having a frost heater)? Pretty minor - but something to look out for. Anyone else had this problem? Cheers Beats PS. A couple of fat rubber bands are serving as ugly-but-effective replacements... |
