[QUOTE="salukfan111, post: 512282, member: 39212"] I'm not razzing you. I think it is a just a shame we've got all these different sorts of cameras (even digiscoping) out there and there aren't the type of websites to compare everything. It may be that digiscoping is the way to go for birding (I tried and failed) or even a souped up bridge camera it's just a lack a information (that neither you or I are responsible for). I would think with the spiffy cell phone cameras out there and al the proprietary a/d and firmware someone could make a reasonable priced bridge camera that with a single permanent lens could do from 100 to 2000 effective focal length for a price around 300 bucks. This may already exist but who knows about it? I just want to flush out information that already exists for the betterment of all. I'm all about maximizing ones opportunities for the minimum money and also realize (as do you) there is a huge market for people that would just like to buy and a camera and use it. I used the example of my 8 year old Kodak because if it can send a picture at 60x (or whatever) to the viewscreeen with modern sensors, modern a/d converters, and current algorthyms that image can make it to a sd card. We're really on the same side here. [/QUOTE]
