Another guy told me he got a parking ticket with his new P1000, and he was all the way in Cincinnati! I shot dngs on the az901 for as month, and it simply wasn't good for anything at the long end. Started photography in 1984 in the old school, but this camera exceeded my expectation. You don't need to spend a fortune to buy a camera that's designed for videography. the Oly 300 mm) So with no major difference in size and weight, I wonder what is better for birds: - small sensor (1/2.3", 28.5 mm2 area) and insane reach (3000 mm) Many of the YouTube samples don't do it credit because less experienced lower skilled users with inadequate tripods undermine optimal results yet they still look quite good because the camera covers for many deficiencies. My only ok shots at 1980 equivalent were b&w conversions. View our sample gallery to see how a bit of shift can change a photo or introduce creative effects. Narrow minds are well suited to the gutters they're confined by. https://c1.staticflickr.com/1/933/29082164017_342cebf491_b.jpghttps://c2.staticflickr.com/2/1813/30150992218_6c06752f23_o.png.

It's a conspicuous-looking superzoom with one main job: getting you really close to far away subjects. We live and learn. Moon mode. I did not tried the video recording whether it works. If they say "I'll never need such a zoom", or "you can't expect much quality to such a small sensor" or "for the telephoto end you always need a tripod", they simply didn't want to learn to shoot with such cameras, even if they are otherwise very skilled photographers.I'm asking myself if they really understand what a 24-3000mm eq. The two most important are related to aperture and atmospheric distortion. We have had lousy weather.

My A7RII with 70-200mm GM lens weights much more. When DpR tests cameras with built-in lenses ... do they zoom to the 50 mm equivalent focal length? ", also xPhoenix: "This camera is only good for pervs""Sorry you can't get a girlfriend and need a megazoom camera to spy on beach babes.".

So pour a tall cold one and get ready to treat yourself, 2020 style. Nikon's own Coolpix P900 comes in second for zoom power, though spec-wise it's behind the times. Pressing the 'OK' button will immediately zoom to that focal length (you can continue to zoom if you'd like). You just can't get a camera/zoom combination of up to 3,000 mm equivalent focal length for this price and compactness. An airy disk is what they call the smallest possible size of that disk you could get, using a theoretical lens, perfectly focused. Of course one always has to consider different conditions like clarity of sky etc. The camera is always going to lose.Have you compared texting with the P1000 to any phone? xphoenix has a great point, it is the perfect perv camera, as long as you can hide all 3 lbs of it's massiveness!!

That GH4 - Leica 400 combo used for birds and just the 1.4x teleconverter plus crop can be seen at: The P1000 turns in a creditable 4K video performance at a comparative pittance. This camera, like the P900 can make the impossible... possible and for a lot of people that’s more important than sensor size and IQ. Review: Does the Canon Rebel T8i DSLR make sense in an increasingly mirrorless world? The Panasonic FZ1000 is no slouch either, with a 1" sensor, fast lens (that stops at 400mm, though) and 4K video capture. Moon mode offers a number of features not found in other shooting modes. Even though it is unbalanced at 3000mm and slow to zoom it certainly not slow focusing. The 65mm T2 completes Vazen's set of anamorphic lenses for the Micro Four Thirds system. The P1000 features a slew of shooting modes that adjust settings for different scenarios like sunsets, fireworks, and portraits. Technical Editor Richard Butler's pick was the unusual lens that gave him the opportunity to try something new. The jpg doesn't do it justice.I've got soma great pro equipment, but I would love to play with this just for the 3000mm! We've put together a gallery showing the kind of results you can expect from it. The comparison with the Nikon D5600 DSLR is a bit off because the D5600 is a 24 megapixel sensor, so cropping to 16 megapixels extends the perception of zoom to 2250mm. You failed to mention the capability of output to an external HDMI recorder. We didn't find many wizards or scarecrows, but we did see plenty of lizards and landscape scenes along the Australian coast. I'm a bit of a lens snob, so I've not paid much attention to the super-zoom bridge cameras, but apparently Nikon has. Shooting mode: approx. Even had it scored 20, the feature set made this a compelling purchase. There really isn't any camera that comes close to the Coolpix P1000 in terms of zoom range. P1000 is fun camera but too amateurish for me. Nikon has also refined the control layout over the P900, with the P1000 now featuring a dedicated focus mode selector, while a new control ring round the barrel of … I have read each page of this review.

The range that the camera provides you gets you to the bird in a broad range of circumstances. Likewise the same ratio if set to any other zoom level. No probs on water though. I quite like the P1000. Though, the idea of having a huge zoom range is very tempting. Having played with the airliners, the muffs on the nudist beach and the moon for a while, this lump might even tend to annoy its owner more than to excite, cause it's far too heavy and bulky for the given IQ in the more common focal lengths, imho. Probably the people who buy it, use it and keep it :-). I needed a zoom lens for wildlife photography and 4K video, but one can see the results and compare it with any €3000 full-frame one.It is a great all one camera with known limitations!

The chart below illustrates how the combination of a slow equivalent maximum aperture (as you approach the telephoto end of the lens) and small sensor can affect image quality. Haha, xPhoenix: "before you start the name calling, why don't you explain why it's ignorant. This camera will be at f/8 and ISO will be crazy high, giving unusable photos.

In fact, they have dedicated shooting modes for both of those use cases. The highest ratings in recent memory have been given to all arounders. What makes these issues more noticeable on the P1000 is that the equivalent aperture is already quite high, meaning that there's already a lot of diffraction (which takes the form of softening) occurring, and its noise reduction system turns that haze distortion into mush. I've got this camera about a week ago. Nikon Ambassador Ron Magill has worked with wildlife for over 30 years and is an internationally recognized zoological authority.

Planning to treat yourself to a new full-frame camera this holiday season? I'll be using mine for dramatic video zooms impossible with equipment costing under 250 times as much and, if I'm shooting 1080 content, has similar quality output. With 10 times that, most horizontal shots are ruined due to refraction anomalies. You could lose some of the zoom range to save cost, and that might work for still photography. Image quality is so bad, how can you sell such a camera in 2018 ?! Which ISO need to put at 3000 mm to get picture? Nikon's new Coolpix P1000 boasts an extraordinary zoom range and a suite of powerful stills and video features in a (relatively) compact body.

First, the camera sets the focus distance to infinity and activates the three second self-timer. One way to partly get around distance blurring photos at 1000-3000mm. Converted to taste from Raw. The effect of this is a gradual softening of the image as the aperture closes down. It wouldn't necessarily be any bigger IF it had a slow F/8 lens like P1000.But nobody wants a 1500mm F/8, at least I wouldn't.I would like to see 1" F/4 800-900mm, or F/5.6 1200mm, that might be the same size as P1000.But still RX10 3/4 is probably better size and aperture for general use. I think, Nikon has missed a great opportunity to develop a bridgecamera with a big sensor. If so, how is that possible with foot long lens?

Shot in Aperture Priority Mode, RAW File Format COOLPIX P1000 @ 359mm, ISO 100, 1/125, f/6.3. 2,000 mm with the P900. I actually like the wide angle and normal equivalents: very little distortion.And while the "modes" are there for moon and birds, I've found just having it on good old Aperture priority mode, ISO 400(fixed) and RAW image only is more than enough for just about everything. Use the Moon and Bird watching modes to zoom in to those subjects at the touch of a button. enjoy then. This is the downside.
