    Again I must come to you for advice.  I am interested in getting a = digital camera in which to do digiscoping.  Those pictures of birds = taken using this technique are amazing. =20
    The scopes that I would be using are a Swarovski Habicht ST80 with = zoom  20x - 60x.eyepiece.  When I fly to locations, I take a smaller =
Bausch & Lomb scope with a 15 to 45 zoom eyepiece.   =20
    I have a Digital Mavica camera now but have been unsuccessful in = trying the technique with it.  The reasons are:
  a.. Trying to see any image on the LED screen in the back of the = camera in bright light..
  b.. Trying to orient the camera so that an image will appear on the = screen. =20
  c.. Trying to get a sharp image. when I do
  d.. My skill
    What I would like to ask is what characteristics should I look for = in a digital camera?
