I have a Fuji 3100 or 3500 as it is called in Europe Digital camera.

Would this be suitable for Digiscoping ? If so can somebody recommend a budget scope that would be sui
table for this camera.

Thanks

It should work when zoomed in (tele side). You need an appropriate adapter that will fit into the 55mm lens thread and will hold the scope eyepiece. The least expensive scopes worth looking at are mirror based scopes like the Celestron C90 which costs around 200 USD or the Russian Lomo scopes. You need a low magnification eyepiece ~40mm, otherwise you'll get too much magnification.

Many thanks for the reply, I'll look into this and see if I can get up and running in this new aspect of the hobbie
