I've read a few posts about digiscoping with bins and suddenly thought "hey, I could do that", previously under the impression I would need to dig deep in my moth ridden pockets to have a dabble. No more dots in a tree with the caption "it's a Goldcrest, honest!"
It has thrown up a couple of questions though, especially as I'm about to buy myself some new bins.
Ok, I've read on a previous post that a BCF Camera Apdaptor should work with most bins... as I'm buying new ones I obviously want to make sure that's true in my case. Is there anything I should avoid when investing in my new bins that may cause me issues with such a device... shape of eyecups etc??
Secondly, I presume I should make sure the bins can be mounted on a tripod/monopod.
On a more generic note, how do these adaptors cope with the optical zoom on the camera itself... is there room inside the adaptor to zoom up and down or do you just not press the zoom button when you're clamped in?
Thanks for all your help and apologies if I'm asking an "oh not again" question... I did search first honestly. Thankyou kind people.
