Depends if you are 'looking' up from a mark 5 (500) or down from a mark V (510).:D

Hmm.. I guess I learned something today.. My '82' has a single bearing quill? I've heard others talking about moving to the newer quill.. However, by doing so what does that gain the average user? Is it more accuracy or something else? Just curious..


Nevermind.. I guess runout is the big issue that might be solved with the newer quill..
