Olympus C4040 for Digiscoping?

[Blackdog67]

I have been loaned an Olympus C4040 & was wondering if this would be suitable for Digiscoping? If so what adaptors will I need? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I seem to remember it needs the Olympus CLA-1 adapter which sorrounds the lens protecting it. The adapter has a thread on the front 46mm(?) onto which you can mount teleconverters such as the Olympus Tcon-17.

A separate adapter would be needed to mount it on a scope - but which one depends on the scope and eyepiece. LCE (Winchester branch) make a good range of adpater and also EagleEye. If in doubt as to the one you need, you can ring them up with the make and eyepiece of your scope and they'll tell you which you need.
