I have a nikon p6000 and a swarovski 80 hd, do you know of an adaptor/s for this
combination? Thanks. I enjoy your website.

Sweet Sweet Sweeter than Sweet! I’m going to attempt digiscoping soon. I only have a Vortex Sanpiper 65mm. I don’t know if the optical quality will be good enough to make it worthwhile.If nothing else, it should give me good practice though.

Eddie – is the F-stop related to the lens rather than the camera itself? I have an Xsi Rebel with an 18-55mm lens on it and the lowest F-stop only went down to 4.5. I also tried an 80-200mm lens and the F-stop starts with 4.5, but then moves up to 5.6 when I zoom to 200mm. What kind of lens will give me a lower F-stop?

Thanks for the tip (particularly as both of my cameras are Canons.) Still working on getting a digiscope someday…maybe.
