Cameraland steered me towards a model a little bit taller because I wanted a super zoom. Everything I want to shoot seems like it’s way out there.
I got the Sony DSC-HX400V, which has 50x optical zoom, rather than 30x. The price isn’t much different, but the camera isn’t nearly as easy to carry as the one being discussed I’ll guess. So far, I’m not sure if I made the best choice.
I did get some decent shots of the moon a few days ago that I’ve never been able to do before with a point and shoot. And it focuses much faster than the Nikon that never was fast enough to get any game shots worth sharing. I need to play with it more.
