If you want to see something new in nature!
All, I'm one of the old and old-fashioned compact camera digiscopers, still placed 4th in last year's Swarovski DOY contest in Portraits with Canon S-100, but am afraid it's dying. The choice seemed to be get a backup one cheap on eBay (could get a lemon), or try for upgrade to G9X with its 1" sensor and upgrade from 12MP's to 20MP's. I went for it. Did enough test scoping in Best Buy's 15 day return period to decided to keep it; even if only as backup. I don't yet believe it's as sharp optically as my S-100 but the features are sure greatly advanced. Anyway it has a rubber plug for an AC adapter, and I took advantage of that to make my own "super-battery," maybe commonly called a battery pack (having never owned one)?? Maybe camera review at future date, but you can see the battery pack and how its on the scope in my new thread in the Accessories Forum. This may help someone else who'd like to do it, down the line. Purchase links and details there. Guess I might as well attach the same gear photo here. Best to all of you. Steve B.
p.s. if I ever need to jump a motor scooter battery out on a shoot, I'll be ready!
