Photography

Digiscoping

Digiscoping is a type of afocal photography, using a digital camera to record distant images through the eyepiece of an optical telescope. It commonly involves either a digital single-lens reflex camera with lens attached or, more often, a fixed-lens point and shoot digital camera, mounted to obtain photos through the eyepiece of a birdwatcher's spotting scope. The term has also been associated with the use of a digital camera and spotting scope equipped for prime focus photography.
