Digiscoping with 350D ? - PhotoCamel

dakoo · 08-05-2006

hi..
I love Bird watching.But have been unable to photograph them for the lack of equipment.

Now i want to buy some stuff for the purpose but only temperorily say for 6 months. Budget limit $150 - $200.

I had 2 choices :
1. sigma 70-300 mm f/4.0 lense.
2. Tokina 400mm f/5.6 lense [reseller's]

But i just came to know about Digiscoping.
And now i think it would b a better investment as i can use the telescope for other purposes later on.
My query is R results with 350D satisfactory.It seem that sutter speed will b slowed down drastically. Also if i decide to buy the equipment what would U suggest ? Can U help me with this pls .

regards
dakoo

If you find out anything, let us know. I looked into digiscoping years ago and rejected it because resolution was way too low.
