    ATC vs ATS 65 Digiscoping

    Thats my thoughts too, why keep the lens when you can enjoy the view through the scope and take photos as and when. I guess the main point for the camera lens is BIF as thats something that would take a lot of skill with a scope. I'm thinking of just using my camera for macro only now tbh...

    ATC vs ATS 65 Digiscoping

    Nice! Have you owned any other scopes before the ATC? If so how do you find it compares?

    ATC vs ATS 65 Digiscoping

    I did some research on the Digiscoping groups on Facebook earlier on and it seems the Kowa 883/884 and the ATS 80 also produce some really nice results...I think any scope I get is going to be lighter than the one I've currently got 😂 I'm going to go test the ATC first though and see how I feel...

    Cheers Jason, I thought that might be the case! Do you happen to have any images or videos you've taken through the ATC and the 65 so I can see? Do you use the VPA2 on the 65/95 too? Or do you adapt your camera to it? I'd love the 80 and above but I don't think I could carry the weight...

    ATC vs ATS 65 Digiscoping

    Hi all, I'm looking at these two scopes at the moment and I'm tempted to sell off my Olympus 100-400 and just digiscope when I need too especially as that lens isn't really great in bad light anyway. I'm going to have a look at the ATC soon when its in stock at my local shop but they advised...
