Just Trying To Focus Loc: Jackson County, Michigan

I would love to have that constant F2.8 across the zoom range on the P900 like you have on the FZ200. That sure makes the camera much more useable in low light, or for isolating your subject!



quote=Boothie]Well, ever since an outing to Antarctica back about 2005 when I "downgraded" to a one-tele super zoom to rid myself of a "clutter" of lenses, I've been using a succession of Panasonic DMC FZ(x) cameras. Yes, I realize some of the factors against super zooms like small sensors resulting in low effective ISO (like about ISO400) because of noise, and the penalty thereof in low-light shooting...and maybe other shortcomings. But all these and especially my current DMC FZ200 have worked fine for me. It has more than enough (for me) controls resembling DSLRs, excellent shake control, a splendid Leica f2.8 across the entire telephoto range of 25 to 600mm equivalent (which helps low-light shooting), and supposedly very good video capability (little used by me so far). The super-zoom made me pretty nimble on the frequent shore landings in Antarctica and on numerous other excursions.[/quote]
