    Nikon dslr for digiscoping

    Sorry and Help First, an apology. I'm sorry if this looks like I'm hijacking this thread. I did a search first and it was the one that looked like it would be the best place to get an answer to a question. I used to be an avid birder when we lived in Florida. Almost three years ago we...

    New to Arkansas

    It doesn't appear as if many Arkansans read this thread and fewer post to it. Anyway, we are in our first year of living in west central Arkansas and we enjoy the mountains surrounding us. We are in our first winter snow event and our feeders are getting emptied on a daily basis. We've filled...

    Nikon D50 and image software

    I didn't have the color problem with my first shots today. I need to upgrade to something that isn't so limiting. Someone suggested Adobe Photoshop. Is anyone familiar with it?

    HELP.D50 or D70

    I'm using a Swarovski AT80HD with a Nikon D50. I had to wait until yesterday when the DCA AND Universal Adapter Sleeve arrived. The marriage was successful today as I took my first 30 shots as I learn about the D50. I looked at both the D50 and D70. While the D70 can do more the D50 provides...

    New to Digiscoping and need assistance

    Okay, I asked for expert advice and got it and now I'm following it. We are going with the Nikon D50 with the Nikkor 18-55mm lens with power zoom at 3x. Now I'm looking for the adapter to marry the camera to the scope. I'm looking for someone who would know if the Swarovski DCA + the adapter...

    New to Digiscoping and need assistance

    This is what I mean by getting so much conflicting advice. I've been told that since I have the "older" model of Swarovski scope, the AT (not the ATS) that I'll be limited in what adapter to use. I've been advised that there is only one adapter for me to use and even with that I'll still need...

    I'm afraid reversing the process is out of the question. Our primary interest 4 years ago was in having a spotting scope for our birding. Now we'd like to be able to photograph some of what we see so the camera must come second.

    New to Digiscoping and need assistance

    I hope someone here can be of assistance. About 4 years ago we purchased a Swarovski AT80HD spotting scope with a 20x-40x-60x eyepiece. It has been absolutely fabulous for us and we couldn't think of parting with this package. We want to begin digiscoping but we are at a loss as to the camera...

    2006 travel / birding plans, anyone ?

    Wow! Some great trips planned for many. This will be a tough year for us. Weekend trips is all we can plan. We are relocating from Florida to Arkansas in May and won't have much time for any serious trips this year.
