I did some digiscoping back when the Nikon P4500 was the rage but sadly moved to the heavier Canon Teles and equipment.
I am now looking at decreasing the weight load for normal shooting and trying digiscoping with new equipment. I have the Swaro ATX 85 and see most winners as Neil points out in another thread are using the Pana GH8 and the Digiadapter. But the OM5 II as a camera (outside of the digiscope application and 4K video) seems to be the better camera, has more lenses like the newer 300mm, and still takes the 20mm Pana/Leica pancake lens. Nevertheless I dont see very many people posting with this setup. Why is that?
Is focus peeking better? Is it easier to shoot in 4K video and extract stills, or ???
Any help with this purchase would be greatly appreciated.
