Hi All.
This is just my 1st attempt using the Canon 550D, and I am not familiar with it, especially the scope is so long and the visual back is just around one to two feet above the ground.
This coming 7th January 2011 Punggai trip, I will do more practice using this camera. This time I will connect it to the laptop, so that I don't need to use the diagonal, which I find focusing problem when doing eye piece projection.
Regards
James Ling
