    Which scope can be used without a mono-/tripod?

    Hi, i am still not sure whether to buy a small scope or 10x/12-bins i am sure, the bins would not satisfiy me 100%, as 10 or 12x is too short for me But on the other hand, i can use the bins without a tripod So: if there were a small scope which can be used without a tripod (of course not at...

If not, is a...

    First Shot with the A95

    Hi, today i tried my Canon A95 with the Zeiss 85 and 20-60x EP I am really happy with the cam. Although the pic isn't 100% sharp, the handling is much easier than with the Canon 350D DSLR Maybe you like the pic Bye Tobias

    Who is using a P5000 and a Zeiss 85 with 20-60x EP?

    Hi, although digiscoping with the 350D, 50/1,8 looks promising, i would like to try a compact-cam too So, who is using a P5000 together with the Zeiss 85 and the zoom-ep? - what about vignetting? - does the "slowness" of the cam limit the success? - what other points should be considered...

    Zeiss 85 and 350D - seems to work

    Hi, today i received my new baby, the Zeiss 85 As i still don't have a new cam, i used the Canon 350D for the first shots. With the Zeiss Quick Camera Adapter i installed the 350D and the Zoom 18-55 on the 20-60 Eyepiece Take a look at the first shot: the metal-swing (for kids) was about 15m...

    Anyone using the Canon S70?

    Hi, I am still looking for a cam .... i want: - RAW - remote control - CF-Cards - less than 10 MP so i came across the Canon S60 and S70 What do you think? The S70 looks promising, but it seems no one uses these cams Why not? Do i miss a point that makes the cams not suitable for digiscoping...
