Nikon Coolpix P5100



I recently learned Nikon discontinued the Coolpix P5000, replacing it with the P5100. The new camera is 12.1 megapixels and uses the same UR-E20 accessory adapter providing a 28mm thread for digiscoping adapter support. Since I've never used the P5000 or P5100, I can't say how well either works for digiscoping, only that it will connect to thread-based adapters like the Swarovski DCA and Kowa DA1. I'll provide an update as soon as I find digiscoped results taken with this camera.
