I have a swarovski ats 80 hd scope with the camera mount provided by swarovski with a 52 attachment ring will this set up be of any use and will i get good shots through it as the scope in my opinnion is the best on the market.

I have heard mixed reviews from DSLR digiscopers. I would try it, but I don't know.

I use the same scope but I didn't have any success with the standard Swarovski eyepieces. I found that the EagleEye digiscoping eyepiece with Swarovski adapter can be used. The Nikon D50 is then fitted with a 50mm
1.8f lens. It is early days trying different combination of adapters. I must admit that it is more difficult & not as quick as using the D50 with a good lens.
