From a Coolpix P610
Jun 15, 2016 23:25:31 #
I recently bought a Nikon Coolpix P610, and am having a lot of fun playing with it. I'm amazed and impressed at how well it performs for close ups and for reaching long distances. Here's a close up; F5, 1/60, ISO 110, lens at 20.6mm.

Cathy Ann, looks like you got the hang of your new toy right away!! I'm thinking this camera is similar to the canon sx50 and if it is, you are going to love it!!
Beautiful shot, love the colors and have fun... can't wait to see what else it can do!

Thank you, Angela! I sure enjoy taking pictures with it. I do believe that it's similar to the SX50. I've certainly read many good things about it.

Now that you know how to shot a quality photo and post it on the Hog, why haven't we seen many more? Did you drop it?

No, I didn't! The lens motor was acting up - when I'd zoom in to shoot the moon, lose track of it and snap back to find it again and then zoom back, it stopped working. I had to change mode for it to retract!
So, I returned it and got a refund. Then I couldn't find another one at the moment, had a hissy fit, and ended up buying a refurbished D7100. Don't ask me about the logic of getting another DSLR to replace the P610 - there isn't any! I've wanted the D7100 for awhile now, and lo and behold, there was my excuse.
(Now, I have to learn how to use it... . lol! Nothing yet worth posting.)
