SX60 Third outing
4

Today we went to Sump Pass State Park near Englewood Florida on the Gulf Coast. My wife and I each took only our new SX 60's. It was a clear sunny day with lots of contrasty things to deal with.

Observations...

ISO 100 is best, but ISO 200 and even 400 will get the job done, though some noise reduction is in order in PP. Although the 1365mm zoom is good, things are sharper if you back off just a tad. I didn't use any digital zoom and will probably never again after the poor results I've experienced with the fake zoom/crop.

The macro setting is great and close ups are good.

Here's a few from today...
