That was my initial intention when looking for a decent scope but it's only when I saw the DSLR adaptors that I thought........and ended up here asking questions! Normally, I'd have my Nikon set up with the 400mm lens and I currently use my binoculars to have a look at what's around, and to...

quite a reasonably priced set up by the looks of it, Nikon 1, home made adaptor and an Opticron scope.

Perfect, thanks very much and it looks like he's using a home made adaptor and getting some stunning results.

Not sure where best to put this but thought I'd start in here. Firstly, I'm a Nikon man, so Nikon only discussion on this one I'm afraid! Where we live, we get a superb variety of birds in our garden from sparrows, swallows, woodpeckers, finches, nuthatches, to Buzzards, Partridge and...

Took your advise Andy and have just bought an F100, and some film!! Looking forward to shooting a few rolls again. Just a shame it's a double bank holiday as I won't get it till Thursday at the earliest!

that makes 2 of us Rich. Got mine back a few months ago! It's addictive!

cheers for that, will look at the F100 on the bay a bit later. Just to confirm, my lenses will work ok on the F100 or not?

ahh good point, so the DX won't work but I'm presuming my AF-VR 80-400 and Sigma DC 18-200 will be ok then??

nope, never set up a Flickr account, just use Photobucket! Might get round to it one day soon! We're next to RAF Cosford, not sure if you'd been to that place, pretty sure you have?? Before that we were at Four Ashes. Only 12 minutes on a good day from where we moved to into work anyway!

can't complain! No one cares if I do!! Moved back 'home' to Shropshire last year in to the country and have started doing a lot more photography in the last 3 months now we're settled in. 28 years since I picked up my first camera and still enjoy it as much as I did then. Just fancy taking a...

How ya doing Rich!?! Long time no speak or see for that matter!

looking around, the F4, F5 and F100 all fall within budget for a good clean/refurbished one but does anyone have any opinions on any of these 3 camera's?

Fancy having a bit of a throwback and using film again. First (and last!) 35mm camera I had (and still have!) is an Olympus OM10, with the Manual adaptor. Obviously this is now 28 years old and has it's limitations and I've been using digital for quite a while now so not really kept up with...
