Getting Started in Digiscoping - 2005/12/15 06:18 Beginners Tips for Digiscoping
A good tip for anyone interested in birds and wanted some snap shots for personal use is to use mobile phone camera against optics, believe me it does work and you can get some great shots.

If you want to step it up a bit but keep cost low, go for a digital camera that will attach to a scope this will allow decent close up shots. I would definitely think about attaching to a scope because you'll certainly want to get closer.

For the serious photographer I would choose canon equipment - eos1ds body=£4,799 / ef600mm f4.0 l image stabiliser = £6,199 total cost less accessories £11,000.

The best advice I can give to get better results is buy a full set of camouflage clothing, be patient and let the birds come to you, gently persuaded by food - then click away at a fraction of the cost!
