Here is my first attempt at digiscoping wildlife.
Tak FS78 / Vixen LV zoom at 8mm / Nikon 4500 at full 4X optical zoom. Range to eagle was 1/2 mile or more. Visible as only a b&w dot through 8x binocs. Any advice on digiscope focusing would be greatly appreciated.

Bob,
Not at all bad for that distance. Stay at it. Long distance photography is very challenging. Thanks for showing the picture. Kurt Horsley
