beautiful.  and demonstrates how good the FZ is for nature shots. if you didn't say zoo, many of us would not have guessed.

to me that is the biggest draw of the super bridge camera.  mine aint perfect but it likes to go with me places where i normally don't want to lug the dslr or change lens much. yep, 'good enuf is ...

sorry it didn't work for you. i still shoot with my FZ70 but if i were to upgrade it prolly would be the FZ200 or FZ300 or other. keep us updated on what you decide and a mini review of your new ...

thanks.  basically you have a classic camera and lens making beautiful music together.

excellent.  i note you use the fifty STM 1.8, do you like this lens over the older F1.8?  any advantages?

depends on the camera.   my FZ70 is a piece of cake to take off the front decal and pop the 3 screws out to clean.  bought the camera used for less than $125 and i like repairing things myself as ...

that's an oddball rose with a propeller behind it. another good one from your nature paradise. :-O

yep, i use a small wrist strap on my FZ and then carry a small camera bag over my shoulder/neck.  cheap straps on amazon, the big oem neck straps are a pain.  spare battery kept in camera bag with ...

on some cameras this is an easy clean, pop the front lens off: done.  also YouTube has videos of a shop vac and coke bottle to vacuum lens debris. the front of my bridge camera pops off easily with ...

thanks for the update.

on a PC, open the photo on screen and hit the 'print screen' button. open the print screen in photoshop elements or another program that will open the print screen grab in your ram memory.

thanks for the update. time to call Canon and ask them what this phenomenal camera is worth? or could it be that someone has messed with the count electronically in some way? i suppose it is ...

yeah, it was kind  of a 'coffee thru the nose' reaction at MPB....well sort of. and i let them know we are discussing this on the forum. they were cool about it and said it should be fixed by ...

(groan)........yeah i got that LOL. i was trying for humor, but.........sometimes if humor is tooooo subtle for the net. the joke is on the 58 million shutter count, meh no one takes that seriously ...

. going to pass on this one: 'heavily used'.... This camera body is in a heavily used condition with significant signs of use. There are significant marks and scuffs to the paintwork on the body, ...

kind of amazing, if true, then canon wants this fabulous camera back.

still using the old camcorder for vids.

that's the problem i had with mine, so i gave up and bought a video camera for videos back in the day.  the T4i was better with focusing using the new EF-S STM lens for video.

yep, almost feels like you could reach out and touch it.

i try to do well regardless of the camera in my hand. sometimes i shoot with an old point/shooter and other times with a DSLR, in the end it really is the challenge of getting the shot with the ...
