    My test & review of the Swarovski ATX 30-70x95

    Kimmo, how did you perform the resolution test. It cannot be black and white lines to be distinguish I think. Chromatic aberration is less impacting results then. I should be multicolored lines to be resolved. I wonder how we can compare scopes. Thanks for a nice review. Mariusz

    Digiscoping with the Nikon V1

    I still do not understand how DA10, AR598, ring 58-40.5 works together. When 10-30mm lens zoom in or out, it goes forward and backward. AR58 + step ring leave 4mm space for lens to go back and forth. Or the step ring is much longer than 2mm. Does anybody have a picture of this ring or link to...

    Digiscoping with the Nikon V1

    Neil, so Kowa 883 25-60x, needs DA10, AR58 and a step ring 58-40.5. But then there is a gap (two rings) between zoom and a lens. Can we avoid vignetting in that case? When vignetting disappear fo 18.5mm and 10-30mm lenses? Is 18mm lens better than 10-30mm lens? Now I have coolpix 8400. Is V1...

    Digiscoping with the Nikon V1

    Dave, I am not clear about it. I have Kowa 883 and DA-10. I am thinking about buying V1. I understand that I need AR58 and a step ring 40.5 -58mm. What is this step ring and what is it for? Can you send a picture how to mount V1 to DA10?. Does V1 have a thread 40.5mm? Where I can get the step...

    Kowa 883 25-60x ep digiscoping question

    I have Nikon 8400. New zoom is not better than 20-60x in terms of vignetting for this camera. Old 20x was very good for digiscoping. All above 20x in old zoom was useless for digiscoping. In new zoom I take pictures above 25x quite often. The geometry of new zoom is different. When I attach...
