Have you seen this? Birdwatch - The ultimate in digiscoping?
It sounds really good, completely waterproof, you can fire the camera by remote control. Any bets on the price.  |

It looks brilliant! Dread to think how much it will cost though. |

Wouldn't like to guess the price Graham but if it's anything like other Zeiss products it should be up to the job.
Wonder who wil be first on WAB to have one.

Roger | The way things are going with my equipment at the moment it'll probably be me. 
Not only have I got to return my new lens,the lens hood has come lose, my camera is playing up again. (Sticking shutter again.)
I think I'll go back to using a compact! |

Things don't seem to be going your way Graham. Think it's time Ben and I got over your way to see if we can pass a bit of luck on to you if we ever get any decent weather that is.
Going to take a wild guess at the scope/camera set up and I will most certainly be way out but around £1600/£1800

Roger | What is frustrating with the camera is that it works most of time. Sounds daft, but I wish it would fail completely! I know if I returned it they'd simply send it back with no fault found.
It'd be good to see you both again, whenever it is.
Siskins have arrived at Rufford, saw them for the first time yesterday. Way too high to get any shots but it was good to see them. 
Hang on, where going way off track on this thread, is there a moderator around..  |

Looks a good bit of kit but what you could really do with is an image stabilised hide floor! Some hides wobble at a sneeze!
Give it a year or two and they will have upped the pixel ratio too, so I'll wait until I'm then and if I've got a few bob spare(joke), I'll consider one.
