Hi!
I have just bought a digital camera, not the 4500 but a Canon Ixus 400 (it was a compromise between family needs a birding needs). I have a couple of questions:
1. Since I cant buy an adapter for my camera (wrong kind of construction) I am planning of making my own. My question is if the camera lens should be as close to the scope as possible or if it should be some kind of "air" between them? Yesterday I did some digiscoping and I came to the conclusion that the closer I came, the better result I got. I am terrible afraid of scratching my scope...any advice someone?
2. Does anyone have any experience digiscoping with the Canon Ixus 400? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
3. The file attached was my first attempt yesterday. Any comments?
Best regards
Marcus
