    Digiscoping with Swarovski 80HD

    I will be using the DCA to mount my Cannon 7D. Can anyone enlighten me on proper focusing technique since auto focus is not an option. Particularly, is live view a practical solution? This is my wife's scope and I will have less stress if it doesn't take ages to get the pic. I need to get on and...

    7D vs. 5D mkII

    This is the same as I am getting and the comparisons are similar to the 50d. I don't mind giving up a little more noise which can be corrected vs spot on focus. This is a no brainer in my book. The focus in the BIFs in this forum and others is quite remarkable.

    Sony W100/Panasonic FX33 any good

    Forget to mention that the FX33 has just under 4mm movement in the lens as it zooms so that there is no risk of grinding the lens into the eyepiece. There is no vignetting at 2X to 4X

    Sony W100/Panasonic FX33 any good

    Fx33 is a perfect fit for the Leica adapter and does an excellent job.The only wish is that it had aperture and shutter priority options. Things that are lacking in my photos are my problems not the camera. Some of the pics at the link below are the first attempts with the FX33 and my Leica...

    Hello from Harpers Ferry

    My best birding moment ever was standing on the bridge to Virginius Island with a flock of Baltimore Orioles almost at arms length. I hope you are able to get there this spring. I understand this magical moment is repeated every year..

    Holster bag

    Is the Lowepro Topload Zoom AW Holster Bag my best choice for carrying the FZ50 with the 1.7 extender attached or loose in the bottom? I would prefer a bag that opens away from the hip but can't find one.

    Fx30/clux2

    The Leica Clux2 is producing very good results. The Panasonic FX30 is essentially the same camera. What Panisonic model is the latest version of the FX30? Is it the FX55 or the FX100? Or put another way, what new Panisonic model would be the best to use instead of a CLUX2?

    Picasa

    I have been using Picassa for a year now and I still can't find the originals after I save a change. It tells me That a change is being made and saved and that the original is also available. Where is it? Would I be happier with Lightzone or ACDC?
