In reply to those who feel bridge cameras are "not real cameras" I offer this portrait. Taken with a Panasonic FZ1000, with 24-400 Leica zoom lens, 20.1 mp sensor.
Outstanding!!! Very nice lighting.
My Sony H-1 takes great shots!
(I've no problems with bridge cameras.)

Maybe it doesn't matter what other people think and it's more important how you feel :)
Great photographs were made through the rather short Photographic history with equipment and resolutions FAR more modest that the camera used to make this nice portrait.
While a photographer can make gear matter by using capabilities to express a great concept, or perform in extreme conditions, The confluence of composition, light and "moment and gesture" yield great results. No matter what you're using.
Several of my best portraits were made with a folding Zeiss IKON 6x6 camera from the '40's or '50's that I bought for $20 at an Antique 'Barn" in Vermont thirty years ago. Sticky shutter and all!

Nobody's saying you can't take good portrait's with a bridge or point & shoot for that matter, you just have to know what your doing. Good photo.
Thank you everybody for your replies. Much appreciated. --Tom27
