I have a camera lens of 200mm focal length, plus a 2x converter giving a total of 400mm.
I'm trying to get a 'feel' for a Scope. Would a Scope with a focal length of 400mm, give the same size image? Or are other factors involved.
By way of example, if I was monitoring my nest boxes about 30 - 35 feet away, would I have a better view through a Scope, or could I see the same amount of detail through my camera lens.
The Scope I'm interested in is a Celestron Ultima Refractor 80.
I've been toying with the idea for years, as I could also get into Digiscoping, but I keep thinking that if I could achieve the same results with my camera, - then why should I !
So I'm asking you experts for advice :t:
Thanks L.
