    Instruction manual.

    I have not long purchased a canon S3 as my trusty 10d and my 100-400 lens seems a bit heavy sometimes if I am walking any distance. My wife bought herself a Canon 640.

    Digiscoping with a Canon10d

    I use a Canon 10d and I am thinking of getting a Sigma 105mm macro lense for it. I also use a Swarovski ATS80 HD scope. Now I think the filter size of the lense is 58mm which I think will fit snugly up against the Swaro 20x60 time’s eyepiece. I wonder how this would work for digiscoping. Any...

    Hello Everybody

    I have been interested in Birding since childhood when I roamed my local common and woods. I am still roaming my local patch, but the woods are now part of a country Park. I have just discovered Digiscoping and have managed to upgrade to a coolpix 995 and a Swarovski scope, so I hope I can learn...
