Hello birders,
I posted this originally at the Canon thread but I guess this is the best forum to get advise on.
Can you recommend a good spotting scope to complement my Canon Powershot A630? I already bought the camera so I'm stuck with it. I'm eyeing the Celestron C90 Mak firstly because of its cost and secondly because of its good reviews. I'm just a little wary if the two will do well together. My camera's lens range is 7.3(W) - 29.2(T) and f/2.8(W) - f/4.1(T) with 4x optical zoom. The C90 Mak on the other hand has a focal length of 1200mm and comes with a 32mm eyepiece. I'm a beginner in photography and I'm just trying to learn how to use the camera settings so please bear with me if my terminologies are not correct.
My considerations for buying will definitely be cost because of my tight budget.
Has anybody tried this combo? If so, can you please post some of the results and possibly the setup and settings to obtain those shots?
By the way, I will mainly be using this for bird photography.
Thanks,
Eric
