I have a Fuji 6800 zoom digital camera with a Kowa scope tsn 4 with zoom lens,is it possible to obtain a adapter for this to use for digiscoping?
 
I'm not too familiar with that particular camera. Are you able to get reasonable shots by holding the camera against the scope's eyepiece... is vignetting a problem?
You will need a fixed filter/accessory lens thread to use a conventional adapter (L.C.E. or Eagle Eye Digimount), alternatively you can investigate the support bracket type of adapter as made by Opticron, that holds your camera up to the eyepiece via arms attached to the camera's tripod socket and tripod head.... very unwieldly and cumbersome I'm afraid.

Andy thank you for your reply,the problem with the camera it does not have a screw thread to facilitate an adaptor.Holding the camera to scope eye piece is unfortunetly very hit and miss.
