Bill P and the Pentax 5mm XO

Bill,

Of all the reviewers in this forum, you have my greatest respect. Your writings are always enjoyable, and reflect your professional approach. Nice touch putting the Pentax 5.1mm XO in front of an image of Copernicus - the XO5 deserves that honor.

Hello group ,

As usual another outstanding ,in-depth report from Bill . Over the years he has sent us excellent information , and deserves a little .

I for one would have never thought it would best the TMB Mono. but from your report in some ways it did . The people designing them know there glass and coatings very well.

Thanks , Leonard

Thanks so much

But kudos really deserved back to the members here who are so kind and generous that lend out this great glass and provide such insightful interchanges, and to Astronmics and the Moderators who have together made this a model of an online community were it's just nice to participate.
