    Olympus EM10 my iii

    I’ve just purchased the above micro four thirds camera and am looking for a digiscoping adapter for my Zarowski telescope. I notice some adapters fit directly to the body camera what effect does this have on the picture quality? Can anyone recommend a suitable adapter please.

    Staffordshire Central and East

    Cannock Chase As far as I know there have been two reported sightings of Grey Shrikes this winter. One north of the shooting buts and again in Sherbrook Valley below the glacial boulder. I must admit I've looked 2 or 3 times but failed to contact the bird this was a few weeks ago now.

    Viewers Droop

    My velbon FHD-51Q tripod is just 12 months hold and recently I've noticed the vertical locking mechanism does not hold its position ie droops is there any adjustment that I can do? I've tried adjusting the position of the scope forward and back but it just doesn't seem to hold.

    Universal call to end the illegal killing of birds of prey

    Signed because the momentum needs to be kept going and kept in the public arena.Especially after the brutal killing of the Peregrines in this area.

    Spectacles and Scopes

    Thanks Clive I'm coming to the same conclusion but I still can't get my head round the fact that I need to adjust the focus on the scope when I remove my glasses to see what the camera sees.Perhaps I'm underestimating the camera! Cheers Rob

    My Nikon P5100 digiscoping set up

    Thats sound very easy.It's very similar to what I do as I have the same scope and camera but I have the swarovski adapter the one half I leave permanently on the scope and the other half fitted to the camera so its only a question of sliding the two together to shoot photos. Can I ask what...

    Spectacles and Scopes

    Hi As a relativley newcomer to digiscoping I've a thousand and one questions! Firstly when I focus the scope prior to attaching the camera should I be focusing with or without my glasses on? (just to complicate the issue I wear 'vary foculs'.) Cheers Rob
