    One Definition for DIGISCOPING please.

    Let me keep this simple. Remember, this is only my oppinion. Digiscoping: Using a digital camera, wether its a P&S, cameraphone, or DSLR with a scope to take high magnification digital photographs. The DSLR when used to digiscope can use a normal SLR lens or a T2 mount fitted to an adaptor that...

    Fed up with punctures

    um, I assume that is where the rubber of the valve seperates from the rubber of the tube? if so that is not what is happening.
