    S200EXR RAW conversion question

    I understand that with this camera (and other Fuji's) that RAW conversion is a problem. Has a solution for this problem been found yet? Do I need to download the included Fuji software and then updates? Will that enable successful RAW conversion? I just got the camera, and am trying to upgrade...

    Good movie camera's for backyard birds, etc.

    I've been trying to learn what are good choices in the under $300.00 range in the current crop of video cameras- and perhaps between $300.00-500.00 as well. I'm considering getting a straight movie/video camera, as opposed to the hybrid/DSLR camera. Looking for something with some optical zoom...

    S200EXR/S205- any experiences with it?

    Am looking for a camera for birds/squirrel's in the yard with better image quality than the HS-10, Lumix FZ series, or the Canon SX30. This camera seems to fit the bill. Doesn't have the bells/whistles of these other superzooms, but the end result is what counts IMHO. Any feedback? Thanks.

    Bushnell Legend Ultra's vs. Elites??

    I've been reading about how awesome the new Bushnell Ultra HD's are- and it makes me wonder- at 1/3 the price of the Elites, for example- do the Ultra's make the Elite's obsolete? Why should I want to buy the Elites when for so much less, I could get the Ultra's? Thanks for some insight here- Wes

    Pentax 20XW eyepiece thread size?

    I have a Pentax 20XW eyepiece to use in my Pentax PF-80ED-A scope; am wanting to use my P5100 Nikon with it as well as my Nikon CP-8400, and need to know the thread size of the Pentax XW eyepiece so I can either search for adapters- or try to make one. Or are there any commercial adaptors for...

    Another new member

    Greetings from soggy NE Florida! Newest member here, just joined. Have read a lot in the equipment review threads, looking at choosing a spotting scope. Am kind of close to purchasing a Pentax PF-80ED. Am interested in digiscoping, have been planning on using an astro scope- a Stellarvue 80mm...
