Hi All,
I finally got out with my new scope (Kowa 822), camera (CP990) etc and, as a total beginner with both, managed to get plenty of shots of hunting kestrels.
I know that they're not the greatest digiscoped shots and that I've a long way to go, but I can't tell you how chuffed I am with them as a firts go, all hand held etc.
The best bit though is that the bird was a long way off and she just carried on hunting so I didn't disturb her at all! I hope she got her breakfast.
So thanks again for all the advice so far and I'll add my own advice for anyone thinking about getting their first scope and digicam to have a go at this:
DO IT! :t:
