Digiscoping

Advice & Lessons for All!

1st time forum user... I have recently purchased a piccolo compact scope, very basic but it's a start! I have a Fuji compact and a Canon Eos 1100 digital camera. Can anyone advise on a digiscope adaptor that would be compatible?

Hi there, 

Welcome to the Forum.

Could you please tell me which eyepiece you have for your scope and how does your eyepiece attach to your scope please?

Many thanks,

Danny.

Hi, thanks for your reply, all I can tell you is the eyepiece has 15* 30* 45* magnification, with a screw thread attachment to the body, hope that helps.

Thanks! 

The Piccolo is distributed by Opticron, but not made by them. I think their 40215 DSLR adapter may fit your scope, but I can't find any solid evidence to back up my theory.

I can probably order you one if you decide you want to try one.

Other than that your only other option is a clamp style adapter for a compact camera. Does your Fuji have more than 5x optical zoom? If it does it will not be compatible for digiscoping with.

Unfortunately, your scope isn't that new, so chances are there are not many choices in terms of adapters as they just haven't been developed.

Sorry I can't be more positive

Regards,

Danny

Thanks for all your help and offer, I think I will go down the road of a clamp style universal adaptor and see how I get on.
