Hi!
I understand high shutter speed is a good thing when digiscoping, and a 77-85 mm scope collects more light than a smaller one. But how is it with the light collecting capacities on the camera objective? I'm just an amateur on fotography (so excuse me if I'm totally wrong here), but isn't it so that a bright camera with a low f-number (big aperture) result in higher shutter speeds in a given situation than a camera with a high f-number?
Maby then there is digital cameras who is better in this aspect than for example coolpix 4500 (biggest aperture 5,1 at 4x zoom)? The Olympus C-4000 zoom has a biggest aperture 2,8 as another example. I have no idea if this camera is good for digiscoping though! (Has anyone tried it?)
