Has anyone else heard that Ed Stevens is taking a sabbatical? I have it from a good source that he will not be taking any new orders. So if you can't get a Zambuto for whatever reason, who would you pick for a 16" f/4.5? I'm leaning toward Pegasus or Swayze, in part based on price.

I think if you get a Swayze you will be happy. He helped me refigure a 8" f7 and he knows his stuff. I know other mirror makers are out there that make good mirrors.
