I am curious as to what eyepiece size/magnification is popular for digiscoping. I am attempting to determine if using a lower power (24-30 mm) eyepiece would improve the light levels delivered to my digital camera. Common sense would dictate that the larger exit pupil provided by a lower powered eyepiece should give a brighter image. With this thought in mind what size eyepiece (relatively speaking for your setup) do you feel delivers the best combination of magnification and a bright image? I see folks often reference the Nikon 82 mm model with the 30x eyepiece for digiscoping but also see many folks opting for 24-34 mm eyepieces in combinations with a variety of other scopes which should yield lower magnifications (16x-20x). I realize this is going to vary somewhat because of objective diameter.
Any thoughts on this issue would be appreciated.
