Hi Garry, about the LCD screen on the e900, yes I would say it is quite good even in bright daylight, the F11 on this point might be better though, at least it is bigger and has more pixels (2"/115 000 for the e900, 2,5"/150 000 for the f11).
About the continuous shooting mode, I didn't tried it yet digiscoping, I tried it on flying seagulls handheld but the light was really too bad at that time, so I'm not sure. Note that there is also a fully continuous shooting mode (but less frames per second and does not work in PSAM modes, only on the predefined ones). Also here the F11 is better I think.
Hope to be able to test it again on Thursday or Friday, if I can manage the focus properly I think I'll keep it (for the optical viewfinder, the 4x zoom, the possibility to add lenses, and the 9MP high sensibility CCD).
Note: about vignetting the F10/F11 also seem to be ok, at least with a pentax scope, found below on digiscopingbirds yahoo list :
"The Pentax scope is one of the best scopes on the market and the 20-60x
eyepiece is exceptional. I am using this scope for digiscoping for a
longer time no and are very pleased by the results as well as the
handling. I use it in combination with different compact digicams, my
favorite is the Fuji F10 and will be the F11.
In fact, the lack of apropriate adapters for this scope made me develop
an adapter for it. This adapter is versatile, you can use most digicams
with the Pentax scope and our adapter. Next week I will hold the
preproduction adapter in my hands, the other week it will start to be
produced. So if you can wait you will get more information on our web site.
