I share your view. Peter.
Optically, Nikon CP8400 is the best among the all the DCs(including mirrorless, DSLR) that I have used for digiscoping. I never forget its solid images. However, given the bigger sencor, rapid focus and better dynamic range in V1, it is time to change. If situation is allowed that I can afford extra weight, I will also bring my 8400 to the field.
