Nikon 4500

[canonman]

Hi
Well got my new camera for digiscoping a Nikon coolpix 4500, form Warehouse Express
Need a bit of help with the settings.
Have read instructions but does not help much.
Anyone out there used a 4500 for digiscoping can you help with some of the settings needed.
I know it could be a bit of a long list there is a long list of things in the menu, but any help would be great
Thanks
Mick

Hi Mick - I would be very interested to hear how you get on, as I am thinking of getting a scope for digiscoping, but I have a Fuji S7000, and everybody seems to recommend the Coolpix 4500 for digiscoping!

Also, could I ask which scope you have?

Cheers

Jez

Feel free to send me a private message and I will do my best to help out. I have had the 4500 since it first came out so am used to most of its settings.

Best wishes

Hi Jez
I have a Kowa 823 scope with a 32x eyepiece, I like them.
They are a bit heavier then the small ones on the market, but if you want to digiscope you need to get as much light as possible to go to camera.

Thanks, Mick - I have heard many good reports about the Kowa scopes. Let us know how you get on with the Nikon!
