Hi all,
I have recently begun digiscoping with a Swarovski Scope, an 800mm adapter, and a t-ring mount for my canon 7D. The rig seems to work well and be solid, but I am noticing a bit of 'wiggle' with the t-ring itself on the lens mount.
Has anyone else encountered this issue? Are there certain manufacturers that are closer to Canon lens specs that might make for a more snug fit? The ring itself is stamped with "for Canon AF Japan" but doesn't show a manufacturer name. I purchased it with the rest fo the rig from a very solid optics retailer in the US, and am wondering if that is just life, a specific make that is known to be off, or the one bad apple in the batch.
In any event I am enjoying the range and challenge of building a new photography skill set.
