Finally ordered a ED82A (5 Viewers)

[Jason Bugay Reyes]

Now I have a tracking no. on the 82ED

One question about image quality when digiscoping with the 82ED. Is the quality so good that you could make large quality prints from the files?

Or is digiscoping for documentation mostly?QUOTE]

It depends with the distance when you digiscoped your subjects and also megapixels of your camera. My Fujifilm F31D is nice with A4 size and if my subjects too far or in low lights, I switched to video mode after getting few frames :king:

I want to order a Wide angle ocular.
I have allready the ED 82A.
What is the exactly type for a 30X for example.
Is this,Nikon 24x/30x MC, a proper eyepiece for digiscoping?
What did you pay for that?
Is there any good site to order?

Thanks in advance

For digiscoping, I would suggest to get the DS 16/24/30x eyepiece and use the FSB-U1 adapter from Nikon with any compact cameras either from Nikon or other makers such as Sony W300, Panasonic LX3 and Sigma DP2

Or get the FSB-6 with Nikon Coolpix 5100 camera connect using the DS30x eyepiece. You can use the 24/30 MC eyepiece, but you need more rings in order to use the FSB-6 adapter.

Or with the DS30x eyepiece, get the universal adapter from SRB-Griturn like mine for digiscoping.

Do you know a place where they have the FSB-U1 adapter in stock ready to ship?

It should be in stock now MXP if you google on the net. Check my thread about this adapter at Digiscoping Adapter section

Today I tested my new Nikon Coolpix 6000 by just puting on the 25-56 Zoom occular without adapter.
On Monday I'll receive a new occular (16X-24X-30X WDS).
Then I have to count the diameter to order the proper adapter.

 

[ody]

OK!
I have now the eyepiece.
Have I to use it with or without the rubber?

 

[ody]

I shot some pics with the 30X DS.
Distance 20m.

One more pic with my new Nikon Coolpix 6000 on Nikon 82 ED and a Nikon 30 DS.
I ordered a swing out Bracket from Criturn but I did not receive it yet.

 

[Jason Bugay Reyes]

Nice shot ody. Would be better with adapter hehehe

 

[ody]

I allready ordered a Swingout Bracket by Griturn.
How long it takes till they send it?It is now ten days since my order is placed.
Do they produce it after the order?
Here another try.

 

[macs]

Be prepared for another couple of weeks waiting. I ordered simple alignment collar from them almost a month ago. Still waiting...

 

[ody]

I am still waiting for the adapter..
Here a pic made in my last visit at Gallikos estuaries.
Is there any good settings to suggest for my Nikon Coolpix 6000?

 

[ody]

Still waiting for the adapter!
Is there any good alternative for my combination?
I use the Nikon Fieldscope 82ED Scope with Nikon 30x Wide DS.

 

[Jason Bugay Reyes]

How about the universal adapter from SRB-Griturn or Nikon FSB-U1 ?

I'm currently using the SRB-Griturn and tested the FSB-U1 adapter last May and liked it a lot except for the price. Check my review of the Nikon adapter at http://horukuru.blogspot.com/2009/05/digiscoping-with-nikon-fieldscope-ed50.html :king:

I just purchased the Nikon 82ED. How has it worked out for you over the past couple of years?
