Digiscoping Nikon Coolpix 5400 Swarovski 80HD
I've tested the Nikon Coolpix
5400 for about a week, and there's nothing much to say about
this camera. It's not suitable for digiscoping.
The Coolpix 5400 is vignetting over the whole zoom-range when combined to the Swarovski 80HD Scope.
The pictures I shot through this camera (combined to the scope) were all very soft.
And there was much ISO-Noise in the pics (maybe caused by the very small 5MP CCD). So we have
to wait, what Nikon will release next. Hopefully a digiscoping-friendly camera again...
Nikon, please do us birders the favour :-)) !
Your earlier cameras were so fantastic for digiscoping... Why not continue the swivel-design ??
