Hey all,
I'm purchasing the Swarovski 20-60x65 and the Swarovski DCA adapter.
What camera would you recommend to shoot HD video through this scope/adapter setup?
I've digiscoped in the past and know most of the ins and outs, but would like to know your opinion on which camera i should purchase to shoot HD video. I tried my Sony Handycam SR68 on this setup, but was unable to get rid of the black ring and when I zoomed in, no matter how close the lens was, it would not focus and had poor results. With the black ring, the setup worked great! I tried a canon point-n-shoot and i was able to zoom in and get rid of that black ring.
I'm open to all options of cameras, preferably a smaller point-n-shoot camera, maybe a small camcorder. I want to keep this as compact and lightweight as possible because I will be using it when I pack in a few miles.
I've looked at the Swarovski UCA and am familiar with that type of digiscoping adapter but I don't like the size of it to pack. I would like to stay with the DCA.
Any advice?
Any small point-n-shoot cameras that shoot Full HD 1920 x 1080 with a threaded lens?
Thanks! Any info would be greatly appreciated,
