Unfortunately it doesn't work anywhere near as I expected with a lot vignetting at 25x on the scope. The camera itself is very impressive and the tilt screen is brilliant, especially for me as when I attach my existing Pani LX3 on to the eyepiece its too high to view the screen and I have to drop one of the legs each time I want to digiscope. the NEX5 screen would have countered this but I haven't yet found a lens for the NEX series which suits my eyepiece.</p></blockquote><p></p>
