[QUOTE="Brown Dog, post: 101615, member: 1622"] All, Thanks, I'd never even heard of digiscoping before! Michael's link made for some interesting reading; some excellent photos .... looks like an excellent solution; as well as an excuse to buy a good spotting scope! ....one thing I can't work out is whether you are literally just taking a pic through the scope eyepiece, using a connector to hold the camera in place or if something more complicated is being done... to try the concept I just tried clamping my binos (10x42)in a tripod, putting my camera against the eyepiece and taking some photos. Vignetting was awful and the camera wouldn't focus sharply..... [img]http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b162/thebrowndog/P3040217.jpg[/img] ..I tried every variable, zooming in, bino eyepiece in for spectacles or out, camera on macro etc...does this mean my camera will be unsuitable for digiscoping...or have I misunderstood the 'camera attachment method? ...I can see I'm going to have to get into my nearest expert shop to answer all this! ..but any thoughts gratefully received!
