    You have Absolutely Convinced me to get this camera... Honestly you're amazing with this camera, much better then any other videos describing this camera..your videos show the camera's capabilities much more realistically then any other out there.

      Thank you. I appreciate that. I'm relatively new to still photography. If you go to my Instagram page, with the same name as my You Tube, there are a ton of photos from it over there. (Beware, I also hunt) The camera has adjustments in the settings to make the photos more vivid and colorful. I get lots of compliments on my photos, but it's really the lens. With an 83x zoom, it gets you in there. I sometimes do a little post editing with the instagram filters also. This camera is in the $700-750 range on most sites. I got mine and one for my daughter at the Tri State Camera site for much less. Also no tax and free shipping. You can check around but you'll be hard pressed to find one cheaper

      The camera pretty much stops at the end of the optical zoom. Seems I have to press the switch again to activate the digital zoom. I'll mostly use the camera for wildlife stills. Since getting the camera, I've pretty much taken up the hobby of wildlife photography. I post stuff on Facebook and Instagram. I have to admit, I'm impressed with the shots I've been getting.

    I shoot video with mine but get blurry images when I zoom in to quite a high level, are my settings not configured correctly. Don't ask me at what zoom; it could be from above 1000mm, but others appear to get quality bird shots (video) at 2000mm; why might that be? I'm an amateur and always learning, but I wondered what I might be doing wrong? Any help would be much appreciated. Tony

      @@Windwalker_Outdoors I just bought my wife this camera and then I saw a debate online about it's capability to film stars. One guy was showing stars that seem to be jumping all around constantly changing shapes and colors and the other guy was calling the guys video of jumping stars an inability to focus his POS Camera( a p950) . I thought to myself, why would an out of focus camera create movement? Wouldn't it just produce a still object that was blurred instead. My binoculars out of focus don't make fixed objects jump around and literally shape shift. What do you think sir? 🦅cool name by the way windwslker.

      @@1724nine Thank you. I used that name in various forums on the internet. When I created the UA-cam account, I just used my handle so I would be recognized by friends in those forums. As for 5be camera, it does sometimes struggle to keep focus in video mode. I'm not sure that would appear as jumping. The camera is a good camera and not a POS, although it is not in the league as higher priced cameras. I do like the zoom for getting in close. I just wish the photos were a little more crisp and sharp. All in all, I still like the camera.

    Nice, informative. Good descriptions plus lots of real-life use examples. I'm thinking of getting the 950 to use along with my Sony RX10IV (which is super.) The Sony, with its Zeiss lens, is very sharp for a point and shoot. However, it's 600mm vs Nikon's 2000mm. Plus, I found the Sony stabilization really not that good for handheld. From videos I've seen, the 950 seems to be much better. Just an observation; I think an external mike would help both with zoom noise plus all-around better sound. I know it does on the Sony. If I get the Nikon, I would probably really use it as a video recorder.

    • @Windwalker_Outdoors

      Honestly, when you zoom in that far, it is really hard holding the camera still. I'm sure a tripod might help but still, your target is moving. I've tried hand held a few times. My photos didn't come out that good. It does seem that the camera is slow to focus. Moving targets, birds, planes, etc... give me trouble. A more experienced photographer may have better luck.
