    Compatibility iPhone 13 Pro with Swarovski VPA

    Hi, I would like to know whether someone has successfully been digiscoping by combining the Swarovski VPA with the iPhone 13 or the iPhone 13 Pro. The Pro version of the 13 has better specs but does it indeed provide significantly better photo quality? Currently using the iPhone 7 with the VPA...

    A regular visitor in my garden this particular Robin since the winter. It's made multiple nesting attempts and was feeding young last month but I've not seen any youngsters around. Feathers starting to look a bit tatty around the head area with some feather loss.

    Digiscoping with a DSLR is still a good choice in 2022!

    I've been working on my digiscoping system for a while. Earlier this month I finally took it out for a birding trip along with a friend. My birding pal uses a Canon R6 and Sigma 150-600mm (sports) lens at the 600mm end. My digiscope consists of a Nikon D7200 SLR body, and a Nikon ED78 field...

    Hello from Australia. Looking into digiscoping.

    Hi all, I love the birds here in Melbourne and have enjoyed some birding trips using others’ spotting scopes. I’m looking into purchase a scope and mount to use with a mobile phone. I’ll have a browse around the forum but would love to be pointed in the right direction. Cheers!

    A Great white pelican that has caused some fuss in NL, the Jury is still out as to if it has hopped a fence or not in the first instance. In either case its a great subject to go look at.
