Finally got to my home Mak. The wind was shaking the tube, of course. Manual focusing was a song — I thought I'd struggle, but no. And the focus didn't drift anywhere all night. Checked it twice with a mask, all good. For a first outing, I think it's decent. Should have gone for lextrem, of course.
