Thanks all - an I agree Alan, some there are many P1000 shots that are truly great.

A male sparrowhawk launched an attached to the feeders this morning, and dissapeared in some trees some distance away. I was lucky enough to be able to locate the bird with my binocs, and try my ...

EXIF data is available if you click on the picture on a browser. Desktop mode gives you all the data.

The Nikon battery gives you the low battery warning, what thrid party batteries don't do. In my experience the Nikon battery does switch off the camera however if you insist turning it on again the ...

LOL with the P1000 you could be miles away of the sign though :)

Having bought the P1000, there is a very strong case for not to get it if you have the P900, in particular when it comes to the photos it produces. The reason why I did buy it is because it has ...

I got one, really good. Mind you that there is a "mate" version that I ordered by mistake and makes the screen look very dull. I received today the hd clear version and replaced it successfully. Th ...

I use a similar technique as when shooting macro. i.e. for birds at +2500mm make my best to lock the focus on the head a move slightly back and for with the hope of getting the eye in focus. This ...

I find both stabilization sytems very good. The P1000 has that "frame first" option...has anybody tried it? It sound obvious what it does, just wonder if anyone has used it. I may give it a go one ...

I like this shoot a lot, and I relate to your needs.  It is very nice photo, great as record, that let you appreciate all the beauty of the bird, and great to remember the moment. Also, it does not ...

It is a good idea, to see what sharpest with current technology really mean, to put in perspective what the P1000 delivers. You are not proposing a comparison, but a benchmark excercise. Makes sense. ...

My most used: 1. Blackrapid camera strap (about EURO 50/80) - I got it a few years ago for a heavy DSLR+lens  and love it so I use it with every camera now. They are expensive but work great. One I ...

I considered the 150 too, is it worth it having the 250?

It should work. I strongly recommend the Raynox 250 though. They are great and a lot of fun to use.

Very nice shots andI agree, its versatility of also closely linked to the fun fai factor. Love it!

My 2 cents...I think we are still in "discovery season" testing the limits of the P1000. The camera is all about its reach, with strong emphasis in its stabilization system so it is expected for ...

I am on Android and yes, the main issue is with the connections. I have to unpair and pair again the devices every time, wifi is very temperamental, etc. I don't use the GPS either. My main uses ...

Great capture Bassy!

Tbh, I was happy enough to get the head in focus :)

Thanks Augustin. If you ever come to Dublin  there is a good spot for them ;)
