Here is my new toy, unfortunately I am not taking very good pictures with it yet. Still messin with all the settings. Anybody do any digiscoping?
-
That will be so much fun. Can't wait to see some pics from that.
-
A really really sturdy tripod is critical when digiscoping. Any slight wiggle and forget it. :twocents: I have never taken quality pictures but its fun for documenting your bucks from a long ways out to keep from spooking them.

:yike: WOW! $$$$$$$$$$ Nice setup! :bow:
-
Definitely use the self timer.
-
I tried to take a pic through my Swaro and couldnt get a good one either, I only tried once though because I had a 400mm lens.

It has been frustrating so far, I am a real novice when it comes to cameras. The sturdy tripod and the self timer are very important. The elk were out at the house all day and I couldn't figure out how to set this stupid thing up. I think I am getting better though. I don't plan on any prof. pics just fun while I am scouting. Should be fun anyway.

WOW Ryan! :yike: where at in W. WA. can you see far enough to use that?? :chuckle:
just kidding, I know I'd be up on the mudflow shooting bears with that lens....and velvet blacktails....and.....well I'm not sure I could figure out how to use it ??? :'(

You will want a remote shutter control for sure, like others say get a darn good tripod and be prepared to spend a few hundred bucks.

I have a friend that purchased the 80mm HD scope.(he sold 2 guns to get it!!!) He uses Nikon equipment and takes awesome photos. So far he hasn't been happy with the pics he has been getting digiscoping for what he paid? But it is a learning curve. I don't know if he has it figured out yet? I have seen very nice photo's with that setup thou. Keep after it.

Here are some shots I took tonight:

Great pictures!
-
That is crazy!!! Great early season scouting tool...
-
nice fish eagle pics! That zoom really works.
...sounds too complicated and looks too expensive for my blood though. I'll just enjoy your results. :chuckle:
