zooming?

[peteh]

Hello

When digiscoping,
which is better, going to 20x on the eyepiece and then zooming with the digital camera
or going higher on the eyepiece and lower zoom on the camera?
Or is there no difference?
Thanks
Pete.

Other than using the camera zoom to get rid of any vignetting, I usually prefer, light permitting, to have the scope mag as close to 30x as possible...30x will resolve more detail than 20x on an 80mm scope. On smaller scopes, 20x is probably the optimum mag.
It's not a major factor, but it has been found that the cp995/4500 work slightly better at around 3x rather than right up at 4x.
