Some color fringes and looks kind of dark. Is it possible for you to adjust the camera settings?

It very hard to adjust settings since everything has to be manual

Thanks for sharing this.

Personally, I'd love to see more with this technique. I know it is very common among birders (those who are more interested with birding than photography) and I think there are birders who frequent this site but don't post anything who use this technique.

Here is my setup with the E510, it is very difficult to get a good shot, conditions such as sun light and no wind is a must also you have to use a shutter release and it would help if the bird would freeze for 3 seconds

digiscoping is very hard to do in most cases , so you did quite well.

I have played around with the SWAROVSKI 80ED, PENTAX 80MM and leica 77mm a few times with my fuji finepix circa 2005? and mounted the Canon XTI on the 80mm for a friend. Very hard to get good images in less than perfect lighting in most cases.
