Since no one has posted a regret. I might. I currently have an ATX 65, “upgraded” from a Kowa 773 and I may go back. Ive had the ATX for six months now so the jury is still out for me. I was initially planning on getting the BTX and a 95mm. Then you realize your talking $6000 for a used setup. Sure its pretty sweet but $6000 sweet????
I dont know about that especially when the $1900 Kowa 773 is pretty awesome. Optically Im not convinced the ATX is better than the Kowa and the Kowa has dual focus knobs which I like better than the wheel. The only advantage the ATX has is the interchangeability and the more I thought about it really the only “advantage” the ATX has is it requires you to spend more money to make it “worth it”. How insane is that???? The only way to make something worth having is to spend more money on it. After more time comparing the two I may be going back to the Kowa.
