Hi all has anyone ever used a "Nikula" High Quality Fully Multi-Coated Glass Lens 15-30X Zoom Spotting Scope? i was wondering if it would be any good for wild life shots and maybe for some shots of the moon? or is it like the price suggests? any advice please

welcome:love:

I ahve seen some pretty cool images alright. Folage comes out really nice, just need to find my idael subject

Sun to my back or side then, Thanks :)

Thank you for info, looking forward to experimenting. would you advise not pointing at sun directly, could it cause any damage or would the filter keep it safe?

I am waiting for a IR filter, should be here any daynow, but does anyone have some recommendations for shots to take, i've seen some online but wondering if anyone has there own favs?

This question turned out more educational for me than i thought!! Thanks

Does Raw not take a better quality pic that you can edit easier and change most settings used even the WB?

Not being smart but was it on af or mf on the lens? Raw should not effect to focus from my experience. Was the lens clean?

thanks for the info, just need to decide if i can justify buying it now!

Hi Edward, I have a 18-55 lens, do you think that this would be enough, do i really need to purchase a new lens? thanks

I haven't done this before but images and results are very impressive. Would it be an idea to do them with something like baby oil which would have a better viscosity? has anyone tried this and are the results better/worse?
