The GPS function is pants - dont buy for this feature it rarely works! All images I have digiscoped have needed the levels adjusting and a degree of sharpening in Photoshop.  Incidentally I eventually bought the newer LCE adapter with a (removable/replaceable) 52mm thread to mount onto the Opticron HDF 20-60 zoom eyepiece.  This works but is not a happy marriage.  Make sure the rubber eyecup is ON the eyepiece else the fit is poor.  This adapter is made by SRB-Griturn and you can save a few quid if you dont mind mail order.  I am still interested in what others have experienced with the Nikon P6000 and what adapters are proving successful on Opticron scopes?  Has anyone compared the Opticron HDF zoom to the SDL?</p></blockquote><p></p>
