I am curious to know what you might consider the "perfect" tripod for the P1000.  Preferably a carbon fiber (low weight) version.  Thank you. Rob

Thank you Augustin, as always I appreciate your thoughts and knowledge.  I believe from what I have seen so far that this camera will be amazing. Rob

In support of the P1000, I took the same image and ran it through DxOElite and came up with a very nice 45.7mb image that I printed out on rag mat Epson paper 13x19"  It was so nice in fact that I ...

Hi Mark,   I'm impressed at the number of bucks together and number.  Is this unusual?  Nice capture and good eye. Rob

Jim-   Since buying DxO Elite, (as you mentioned) I have been amazed at how well it handles noise in RAW files.  I still shoot as low an ISO as possible use but find this software to be an amazing ...

John-  actually I was also amazed at what was possible with the P1000 using DxO.  I am very pleased and look forward to more samples but mostly the camera in hand. Rob

Hi Augustin,   I agree, I did not like it very much either.  Setting for that particular setting made no sense to me either, especially for the subject and lighting.  Anyway, I decided to process ...

Hello Augustin, I did find a Nikon P1000 image using f/8. See what you think. https://www.dpreview.com/sample-galleries/7298024543/nikon-coolpix-p1000-official-samples/9499000558 539 mm, 1/100 sec, ...

Hi Mark,    So interesting reading your comments and like you I too have had similar cameras like D7100, D750, and Sony RX10m3 & 4 and no camera was more fun for me to use than the several P900's ...

Great explanation Augustin and thought about using f/8 for P1000.  I too will be trying this and from the glass elements put into this lens, it sounds like we will be having some nice images to ...

Augustin,    I'm curious as to what prompts you to select f/8.0 for aperture.  The A makes sense but how do you know this is the "sweet spot" for this camera. Thanks-  Rob

Thank you David, great information for me to have.  Nice simple explanation that works, very appreciative for your input. Rob

Mark-  Another wonderful set of images, as usual - a great job with the eye and camera.   I agree with you 3/P900's is one too many :-)    The fish in its bill is also my favorite, you "nailed" ...

How True Mark,  the car makes an almost perfect "blind".  When on foot, like you, I use a tripod to get the best IQ possible.  I know some can hand-hold but that's not me for best possible IQ.   I ...

Wonderful work Mark, and like you - I do like the first landscape with the eagle in the tree better than the crop of it.  Detail on the close-up eagle is amazing.  Both images speak well of your ...

Wonderful series of portraits.    All so well done, thank you for posting them and keep up the great work. Rob

Isabel-  Nice work on your Pileated Woodpecker and low light Mourning Dove.  I agree with you on the DxO Elite - one great program. Rob

I have been a long-time user of Nikon bodies and the BEST work for me was with my D800e body and using NX and NX2 Nikon software which Nikon sold to I believe Google and now with this release of ...
