    Adobe Media Encoder for owl nest video

    I have been editing my videos in PS using adobe media Encoder for many years. Today all of a sudden I am getting an error. I did a screen capture. I have messed with this for over eight hours and I can't figure out the problem. It was suggested that I try saving to a new folder on a different...

    Great Horned Owl Cam in Oklahoma

    This is my 8th season to have Jack & Carol nesting in my yard. I have moved the barrel three times. I have had 100% success. Jack is at least 15 years old. I discovered him many years ago nesting in my neighbors yards. Many of the nests failed from predators or strong winds. So I decided to put...

    Meopta eye cup

    Hello, I purchased a pair of Cabela 10 by 32 binoculars a few years back. They are made by me opta made in Czechoslovakia and are 10 x 32 HD Euro. I am trying to figure out where I can buy a rubber eyecup that will fit. I had one fall off while birding out-of-town. I only need the rubber cap and...

    Fuji F30 preferred settings

    Hi, I've made a homemade adapter for my F30 and my Swarovski at80hd. I've only had three opportunities to photograph in the field and this last time it was windy (15 to 20 mph winds) so I scoped from my window mount.I'm sure it will be a month before my swing-away adapter will arrive and I'd...

    camera for swarovski AT 80 HD

    My F30 finally came in and I was surprised to see how tiny it is. I didn't even try to take any photos until I made a makeshift adapter to hold it up to the angles eye piece on my at80hd. I'm still leery of ordering the SRB swing away adapter since they don't seem to have the problem with side...

    camera for swarovski AT 80 HD

    I think I'll wait until my camera arrives so I can see if it works with the adapter I have first. I saw somewhere on this web site where a person crafted a tube that fit over the scopes angled eye piece and the camera rested on a plate against the tube... It looked like the tube could be lifted...

    camera for swarovski AT 80 HD

    The SRB sounds like what I'll need for my AT80HD. It just seems like the mount it uses to attach to my scope eye piece is like my LE adapter. Anyway, are you using the F30 camera? If so, did you rig up a remote release. I'd feel better about ordering if the web site said exactly what I need with...

    camera for swarovski AT 80 HD

    Hello, You have beautiful birds where you live. I enjoyed looking at your photos. I have just ordered the f30 and once I have it in hand I'll figure out what I'll need to use it with my at80hd scope. A lot of the new adapters fit the newer/smaller Swarovski scopes. Guess I'll have to see about...

    camera for swarovski AT 80 HD

    Hi, I went to the link you provided and the photos have been removed. It didn't have the name of the adapter...all it said was 'universal' so without a photo I'm not sure what to google. I used the 2Plus LE-Adapter with my 990. I added a link showing what it looks like below. I have ordered the...

    If I can get my photos to look half as good as yours I'll be thrilled! Thanks for getting back with me.

    camera for swarovski AT 80 HD

    Thanks for your reply. I looked at the SRB~Griturn on their website. I wish they weren't so high priced. I'll have to check out the Zeiss swing type adapter and see how they're priced. I'll probably go with the Fuji F30.I've seem impressive images taken with it. Can a shutter release be...

    camera for swarovski AT 80 HD

    Hi, My Nikon 990 died the other day so I'm needing a new digiscoping system... I use the LE adapter with the 28mm step up ring attached and a shutter cable release... I have the older Swarovski AT 80 HD scope. It's really frustrating having to start all over from scratch..I realize I'll have to...

    What adapter

    Hello again and thank you for your patience:) I guess I will try changing my technique before buying a new adapter.I'm sure just taking the rubber off the eye piece will simplify things a lot.......and it really isn't that I'm getting bad pix when I use the 990..it's because by the time I crop I...

    What adapter

    So now I have another question and you might have answered it already and it went right over my head:). :h?: .I use the 20x60 eye piece and at present if I want to zoom closer after I have the camera attached to the scope, I have to take the camera back off. Will the LCE or other adapter allow...

    What adapter

    Thanks everyone for the warm welcome and all the wonderful suggestions..gosh Andy I hope I didn't hurt your feelings for bashing the LE adapter:( I guess I should try using the LE the way y'all suggested and only tighten and loosen one set screw..(that means I'll have to take the eye relief...

    What adapter

    Currently I have the Swarovski AT 80 HD, 990,LE adapter by lens plus....my problem is the LE adapter. It takes forever to attach to my scope even though I leave the threaded step down ring attached to my camera and the other that has three adjustment screws attached to my eye piece...I have read...
