Got the Vortex Viper HD spotting scope for Christmas off my lovely wife so I've been trying my hand at digiscoping again with the iPhone 12 and a Viking adapter to keep the phone and scope attached.
Here's a couple of images of the scope with the adapter attached. I use it now in horizontal mode although in the picture I have it set up vertically.

Here's some pictures I've taken with the set up although not as sharp as my DSLR still I think pretty good.

The iPhone 12 has a great camera and video camera with a slow motion mode which captures slo - mo video at 120 or 240 frames per second. Here's a clip in slo - mo, it's just at my feeders I'm afraid but you still get to see and appreciate the movement and fine markings of the birds up close.
The video is of a female Great spotted woodpecker, the stills picture above is of the male.
I've captured a couple more slo - mo videos and I'll put them up on my next blog.
Thanks for dropping by and a belated Happy New Year to you all see you next time.
