[QUOTE="Neil, post: 1469647, member: 1568"] The price of the G10 has been coming down a little here so I was able to buy one yesterday to finally find a way to make it digiscope. It's such a wonderful camera with great reviews that it had to be attached to a scope so that it could produce some good images. I tested it with the Swarovski 30x, Televue 32 mm Plossl,Televue 12 mm Radian, Scopetronix Maxview 40 S , Kowa 25x LER and Kowa 27x LER. The only eyepieces that gave decent results were the two Kowas due to their long Eye Relief which is more important than the FOV. In order to maximise the range of the G10 zoom I set it up on my balance bar so that the camera can be moved in and out as the lens is zoomed. Here are some of the results from my first testing. Neil. Canon G10 plus Swarovski STS80HD scope and Kowa 25x LER eyepiece and homemade balance bar Hong Kong, China. May 2009 [/QUOTE]
