I'm considering buying a spotting scope to get better close up views of birds. I now have a DSLR with a range of lenses. Get a broad range of quality in results (maybe 10% are real keepers) but would like to see the more distant aves clearer.
Has anyone gone from DSLR to digiscoping or vice versa? I always like to capture the moments as I'm not good at remembering details to identify birds after the fact. Does serious digiscoping preclude regular viewing?
At this point, if I do get a scope I'd probably keep the DSLR handy anyway but if I can lighten the load to go with scope and a small digital, that might be preferable.
I guess the real question is for those who have done both, which results in the best and most consistent results?
Cheers,
Matt
