Fuji Finepix 4900 Zoom

[Rexy]

Hi all

I would like to get into digiscoping and was wondering if it was possible with the above camera?

I don't have a scope as yet so any thoughts on one would be welcome(up to say, £400).It would not be used solely for bird watching!!...

Many thanks

I did own a 4900 some 5 years ago, you will need the lens adaptor extension, these should be the same as for the 6900, 602, 7000 series, truthfully if you have funds up to £400 it might be worth looking into upgrading to a later Fuji such as the 7000 at the same time, you should get a fair price on ebay for your 4900 and not have to pay all that much more for a s/hand 7000 on ebay(strange but true!) which has a higher pixel count and is a much more adaptable camera.

Thanks for your comments Speckled Wood but I think you misunderstood the £400 was for a scope!!!!!!!!!..........
