Hi

I use a nikon D50 for AP.
I would really like to view the actual image from the eyepiece to enable me to frame accurately.

70 degree FOV lenses common with many board cameras produce a very small images in my video glasses or LCD TFT Screen.

What lenses do you use on your board cameras,a nd where did you purchase them from.

I am constructing a frame and enclosure out of black HDPE that slips over and replaces the eyepiece eye adapter, and holds the tiny board camera close to the eyepiece and blocks off all stray light.

Your help is greatly appreceated to let me finalize this refinement, and also to help others in this forum.

Thankyou.

Hi,

I've got a Panasonic KX-161 board camera (I think that is the right model number....) that I bought from Bill Strong at BlackWidowAV.com.

I was using it with a Nikon D-70... along with a GentLED remote trigger setup. You can see pictures of it on my gallery on RunRyder.... do a search for TCGliderguy and you should be able to find it.

I'm no longer using it, so if you are interested, I can make you a deal on it. Drop me a PM if you are interested....
