On nest. Apr 12, 2008. Digiscoping can be a good way to photograph sensitive subjects such as this from a long distance. This set-up has an effective 35mm of about 2525mm. This is about 4 times my 400mm lens with 1.4 extender.... These point and shoot cameras can be handheld to a spotting scope or attached by various types of adaptors. For extra stability a cable release can be rigged to push down the shutter. Nikon Coolpix p5100 Swarovski 80HD/30x SW WA eyepiece Swarovski DCA adaptor with Nikon UR-E20 (28mm) cable release
