Always had a thing for birds/wildlife and have now discovered an interest in trying to photograph it. Being me near isn't good enough so have started to investigate digiscoping but have no idea where to start. I currently have a Pentax K10D A Pentax K100D and an older Olympus C3030Zoom. Can anybody suggest a way forward please? Equipment etc..Many Thanks

First things you're going to need if you want distance shooting is a good quality scope, ED glass or similar, and a steady tripod. Then a compact digicam with 3x zoom lens, although saying that some 4x can be used just as easily, see the A570IS thread.
I suggest you have a good look through the digiscoping sections for ideas, examples etc.

Regards
