Hi all,

Anybody know if the Eagle Eye Opticview 5xconverter will work with the Canon A85? I have a Bower 37mm extension tube so I should be able to physically mount it but have no idea if vingnetting will be a big problem?

If anybody has any ideas on other combinations that will work on the A85, that would be appreciated as well.

By the way, I have just tried the A85 with the Nikon WC-E63 and after a fair amount of fiddling got it to work well.

Cheers, Chris.

Hi Borrisspider - may I recommend you take a look at the website www.birdforum.net You may have to sign up for free membership to view the forum contents. I'm sure you will locate some good info under the heading "digiscoping". I've seen numerous articles involving similar Canon models.

Also recommend www.photosolve.com for numerous products.

Cheers - Herman
