Hey guys and gals, found this great place by way of Kifaru and as much as I hate to ask for something with my first post instead of offering I had a question for any Nikon ED 50 owners. Have any of you had any luck using an iphone to digiscope with it? I've seen digiscope setups for larger cameras and realize the limitations of digiscoping with this smaller scope but I've always got the phone with me and may have quick after/before work glassing this summer for a goat tag I drew. I know phoneskope makes a setup for the larger Nikon's but I think they use different eyepieces so I'm not sure if that setup would work. Thanks in advance and hopefully I'll be able to share some photos as the summer progresses.

Welcome HiCntry!

I have an ED50 and an iphone 5. I can get ok results for ID purposes just handholding. I am using the 13-40 MCII eyepiece. I am sure you could find a DS fixed eyepiece, and phoneskope could hook you up with one of their adapters that would mount to the DS.
