nikon p900
2000mm? (I see it's an 83x Optical Zoom).
Would there be any real value in using this zoom range for a handheld camera though?
Well theres a good reason to be sceptical with that focal length, however the reviews are pretty complimentary so far..the stabilising is supposed to work quite well..
OK, its been out a little while now....I've tried it out at local cam shop and it impresses me for what it is!
Definitely need a monopod to frame the subject with the zoom fully extended, but the ability to zoom back and pick up the subject at the touch of a button is great.
PLENTY of youtubes on it now......
the official Nikon video zooms in on JAWS , so would be a good cam to get close in at places like Shark Island....or on the end of a long pointbreak
This model has jumped the Q in the superzoom category.24-2000mm equivalent....16mp, F2.8-6.3.Ideal for the one camera person who needs a good length on the.telephoto angle.Only shootsJpegs, but it is a the point and shoot sensor.Not a purists piece of equipment, however will appeal to many surfers,paparazzi and peeping toms!
