Birding etc. with the Nikon P950 - Summer 2024

Summertime in the UK is often not the easiest time to photograph and video birds in the UK so I usually move onto butterflies, dragonflies and damselflies. However after a wet autumn, winter, spring and early summer, the numbers of insects is well down on recent years.
Having acquired a DJI Osmo Pocket 3 action camera I can now capture some 'B-Roll' footage to add a different element to the videos.

Cheers Jason. I've struggled to find birds/insects so far this summer. It's looking a bit more hopeful now 😀

Thanks Dave. I still have a bit of work to do on making the narration a bit clearer.

Many thanks - much appreciated. I've just been enjoying your video of Yellowhammers (don't know what you call them). I've never seen so many at once! 😀

Have coolpix p510 2012 version Good photos $300

[@honky014]

The coolpix p510 is certainly capable of taking good photos at a very reasonable price. Personally I needed even more zoom capability for distant wildlife and video at 4k.

[@user-cu1fg5zx2h]

@@honky014 hear ya. Had early coolpix so knew this good. Early like 4x. 42x 24-1000 optical good enough for me
