Well, it is the Age of Extremes after all. My new cameras:
Nikon Coolpix P1000 : A 3000mm (125X) equivalent optical zoom NIKKOR ED glass lens — the most powerful lens ever used on a bridge camera.
Telescope-like zoom power. This isn’t super zoom, it’s extreme zoom.
Nikon Coolpix P950 : A 2000mm (83X Optical Zoom/166X Dynamic Zoom) NIKKOR ED glass lens.
Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ60 : A 720mm equivalent (30X) optical zoom equivalent compact (travel-zoom) camera.
This is how I shoot wildlife 😉

‘Craters on the moon, wildlife from afar, your child's face on a crowded school stage’ is what the brochure for my new camera promised.
Built-in Wi-Fi connectivity with NFC and a mega 65x optical zoom is what convinced me to go for the Canon Powershot SX60 HS .

Kids on stage will have to wait 🙂

I finally got myself a new camera. It is a Fujifilm FinePix HS10. The 30X zoom and amazing wide-angle capability were deciding factors as I dabble a bit in nature and architectural photography.
It was after I recieved my new camera that I realised that I hadn't seen this year's TIPA Awards. Funnily enough the FinePix HS10 too was the winner in the Best Superzoom Camera category. I guess some things are just meant to be.
Here is a sample picture :
The time has come to bid farewell to my trusty old FZ10.
I had zeroed in on the Panasonic DMC FZ10 after it won an award as Best Superzoom Camera at the TIPA Awards <2006>.
Over the years, It has helped me capture some memorable photographs. You can view some of them here:
P.S : I hope Jamshed has half the fun I had with the Fluzi.
