    Decent tripod for less than £100?

    https://www.amazon.co.uk/Hahnel-Triad-Compact-C5-Integrated/dp/B00HVZ9IM8 I bought one of these for my ED50, with the intention of using it very occasionally for short breaks. Turns out I use it everyday. It's solid, full height (with an angled scope) and folds to about 12", despite the...

    Canon G7X Digiscoping

    Seemingly having the same spec as the Sony RX100 I'm a little confused as to why the Canon G7X doesn't appear among the dying breed of digiscoping compacts. Is this camera totally unsuitable for digiscoping?

    Why would you buy a Zeiss HT over an SF?

    A choice of just two devices is hardly a 'choice' ;-)

    Collins Bird App

    In that case I'm glad I scanned my old copy to PDF. Disappointing that they've chosen to supply just the Iphone/Ipad. I suspect it will be too small for the Iphone's tiny screen and doubt that Ipad users will venture out into the field with their overpriced tablets - even if they've enough...

    Extremadura-Red-necked Nightjar

    We had Red-necked Nightjars here at the beginning of June over the road at dusk. Up to four White-rumped Swifts at the Castillo De Monfrague on three separate visits. Best from the castillo but also seen on the walk up and as low down as Pena Falcon. Mark
