Hi All
I havent been on here for a good two years or more since selling all my equipment but just seen this video of the Nikon Coolpix P900 with upto x84 zoom :shock: and takes videos too!
I might have to invest



Happy Spotting

I have also been looking at the Nikon and it looks great, but I would like to see still photographs of contrails so as to get a better idea of quality. If anybody finds any, let us know
