Yes,Andy,please give us your views on this.Do I recall a thread on BF,quite some time ago,where this was mentioned.Could this be the answer to a digiscopers dream,or would it be placed in the same category as bins/cam combo?.
Manjeet can quite see why you now need to be 20ft away from your tanks,have you not a compact cam you could use,which has a zoom facility?.

Manjeet,have you any photos/shots you have already taken with this set up?.It would be very interesting to see one?
Christine all my pics in the gallery B.F. and WPF are taken by this camera-you see i am a fumbling goof with mechanical things-so waited were every thing(scope+camera were married i guess-it gives lovely pics)check my my galleryB.F or here in WPF.It has so many features more i am only using 25% -because i dont know howE.G-it can take 6shot at ine time and show you the best picture on the L.C.d. screen.Look i am going to print the guide book(they parts that are needed and try to E-mail to you or Andy if he has the time.My best pic's i think is -i am going to try the attachment.With this camera +scope-i hardly use my bins because i stand 500feet away and set it up and scane the area for birds-believe me it takes make a30mins to spot a movement and i zoom in the bird is quite clear but if i take a shot the pic is small but still clear.The best shot i find from25 feet 50feet-all details are quite clear.This laughing thrush-2o to 25 feet(the closer you are the bigger the pics.On the tripod and using the remote there hardly any shakes.But may be the experts can burrow one and see for us-i am sure Kowa will be happy to lend one to Andy.Rest my case 20feet to shot my fish pics.(ah).Waiting for reply.P.S. i had asked about the use of Kowa scope in Andy's thread but i never got a reply -i think andy and the rest were quite busy.So stumbled,slipped and fumbled my way to photographing birds etc. but loved every minute of it.Thanks waiting for replies.Thanks.(p.s.-Mf-20meters or less-auto doesnt work and 20meters or more A.F.works well .I find the M.F. easier to use because when the bird is almost ready to fly-auto focus takes time,while manual i can take a shot usualy before it flies away -80% of the time.)
