Tips for Digiscoping

Spotting scope
A common mistake made by people who wish to adopt the digiscoping technique is that they purchase a digiscope that is much cheaper in comparison to their SLR camera. Generally, when using a DSLR camera for digiscoping, the spotting scope replaces the camera lens. Because of this, it is important that a spotting scope of similar quality to your camera is used. It is not a smart way to buy a spotting in low quality and a high-quality camera, by doing this way, it is impossible to get a satisfactory image. So focus on the spotting scope rather than the camera or other gear.

To overcomes this, it is essential that remote control is used to eliminate the vibration.

It is important to practice shooting with the spotting scope before you decide to go and capture once-off photos of objects and/or animals. If you do not have enough experience and practice with the digiscoping technique, it is highly unlikely that you will capture the ‘perfect shot'. Practice makes perfect.
