If you have followed recent devlopments on the asteroid fronts,
you know that the role of amateurs in asteroid hunting is becoming
smaller and smaller. The recently upgraded LINEAR project ( Lincoln
Lab ) is cleaning about everything down to mag 18.5 or so.
So don't spend time searching what you could do with a 135mm
telephoto lens. Even the Mark4 will not cut it.
