You can find lots of reviews and images taken with the Nikon P900. I don't have one, but from what I've seen is that the results are amazing considering how small the sensor is. I have looked at online images and they look really good. But a small sensor like that means that you can't do much in the way of cropping and so on. I do have the Canon SX50 which has less zoom, and I find that I can't process and crop the images like I can with the larger sensor cameras. So the zoom control is really the way to crop.
Rumor has it that Nikon will be coming out soon with an update to the P900, and I may get one if they add RAW. No one seems to know the definition of "soon" though, or if it is even coming. Nikon is quiet about it.

Yes, many of us posting here own a P900. Are you looking to buy one, or learning to understand yours better?
As mentioned above if you will use the sites Search function you will find lots of helpful info on this fine camera.

The Search feature relies on topic titles, so it has its limitations. Only three showed up under "recent."

Hi there I have a Nikon p900 and have had it for some years now. I have taken some very satisfying shots with it - my preference is to shoot wild life- mainly birds. It may be that I am limited by technique but feel that although the camera has an amazingly powerful zoom it is let down by its small sensor. Up to about 10 meters or 33 feet one can get good sharp shots of birds say the size of an English Robin - providing the light is good. The camera does not perform that well in low light. I am about to upgrade to a Nikon d3300 and a suitable lens, but I may find that at the end of the day my own lack of technique will produce shots that are not too much better. I have to admit as well that I have not been very adventurous and have tended to stick to auto although I am not sure this make much difference when shooting with a bridge camera that does not shoot RAW !
I hope this helps.May 7, 2018 07:25:02 #
yes, i owned one.it had a excellent zoom, but the small sensor, in my opinion, was the deal breaker for me, as so i sold it, as I did not care for the sharpness aspect of the camera, nor the detail, which seemed lacking to me.......

I like to think of the P900 of a great "extra" camera. I prefer my DSLR for most things, but when I need SUPER zoom I grab the P900. It is pretty fun.

Actually, Jerry, if you had entered the entire Name/Model of the camera, (Nikon Coolpix P900), you would have come up with over 25 responses, covering a plethora of P900 items.

Small sensor and they focus slow.

For an avid photographer, the DSLR is the "wife", while the superzoom is the " mistress" , reserved for things that the "wife" can't or won't do

Yes i have the P900, it is a great camera for the hobbyist, it was not made for the Pro's', i use mine for wildlife, and moon shots. If you look at my topics you will get a look at what it can do. regards, Alfie.
