I have just bought the Nikon Fieldscope ED82A with eyepiece DS30x and it is very sharp and bright. I have tried some shots with Nikon Coolpix P4 and the Nikon FSB-4 bracket, but find it hard to get the best sharpness. I have tried using a magnifier looking at the camera display, but the display is not as exact as an optical view. The manual says I should use AutoFocusing when digiscoping, which is what I have tested so far. Others say I should set AF to infinity (5 meters and beyond) - have not tried that yet.
Anyway I see Nikon has an adapter for mounting a Nikon Digital SLR to the scope. It is called "Fieldscope Digital SLR Camera Attachment FSA-L1", and turns the scope into a 1000mm telephoto lens (1500 mm on half-size sensor cameras).
I have a Canon EOS 350D and some expensive Canon lenses, and does not want to buy a Nikon DSLR just to shoot through the scope. Finally my question! :scribe:
Does anyone know if it is possible (by using some adapter ring) to connect a Canon SLR to the Nikon FSA-L1 adapter???
I would be happy if that were possible.
I guess this is the same question as: "Can you mount a Nikon Lens on a Canon Camera?"
