Hi,
I've been trying to digiscope with the Vortex Skyline 80mm w/ED glass, the Vortex MK1 adapter and the canon A95 camera. I'm having a very difficult time getting a sharply focussed photo.
The process I have migrated to is follows:
(1) Focus on bird with scope.
(2) Insert camera into adapter
(3) Zoom to get rid of most vignetting. (Use autofocus)
(4) Manually snap photo using 2 sec. delay timer.
- Camera settings are per John Henry's recommendations post.
I have been basically trying to improve the focus/sharpness first, then work on brightness, then vignetting. I assume that there is interaction between these as well.
I am now getting some photos that are better focused at around 35x but none at 20x.
Here are three samples:
(1) Can at 20x at approx. 30ft.
(2) Can at 35x at approx. 30ft.
(3) Dove at 35x at approx. 50-60ft.
Any suggestions?
