[QUOTE="salukfan111, post: 455977, member: 39212"] I bought a special lens that is essentially a spotting scope. It is 800 to 1600mm very cheap and looks awesome thru the viewfinder (at 500 yards the flagstick on a golf green fills screen top to bottom). I use this for spotting Osprey nests for which it is very good. My issue is that the camera says no lens attached. I put it in manual and took pictures but everything on the images is black (the lens cover was off). I really need to be able to take pictures with this thing. If I can get this to work I'm buying a 2600mm which should be even better for this task. What do I have to do to force the camera to take photos with this? This newbie appreciates any help you can provide. [/QUOTE]
