    Conservation Politics and Extinction

    I believe there might be a 25 year rule at play here. ie Bird last reliably seen in 1995 will be declared extinct in 2020. If, however, a claim is made in 2010, the extinction date will be shifted to 2035. with me?

    Sony W300

    I kind of clips on, and you then turn the piece to lock it. As long as you remember to lock it I dont envisage a problem and I have found it to be rock solid to date. I walked around for 2 weeks on Foula with the camera pretty much permanently attached. MSS

    what adapter for sony W100

    best bet probably a Sony VAD adaptor. there are several of these and I would suggest ringing your local Sony Shop. Certainly the guys in the Inverness store are up to speed on VAD adaptors and have a book saying whatadaptor fits what camera. This thread may also be of use...

    Seawatching 2008

    Am I right in reading that these records are "Accepted By The IRBC" the same day that they are seen? That is what Irsihbirding suggests.

    Sony W300

    no adaptors or rings. It does fit straight on though the VAD does say it is 38mm, rather than 37mm - but they still neatly fit for me.

    Sony W300

    Just what you see and my 'digit'. I haven't played about with the settings to anywhere near the full potential yet and to be honest have given up on shutter release sytems over the years. I just find them far to fiddly

As such, I am looking to get a dedicated camera for myself that fits in the pocket when out birding. I also use a Coolpix 4500 (still) and my video camera is...
