Would this be a good camera to zoom in on Trains from far way and video them?

[@campbellellisvlogs7747]

Would Sports Mode be the best mode to record trains

[@Bulldawgfan]

I though great, he is going to be thorough. I wanted to make sure I bought the correct external 5 volt charger to keep it plugged in and while I was here double check that I am buying the correct is it mini or micro HDMI cord. But you went right over that info like it was not important. I am sure after I turn it on I will have questions on the settings which were also not covered but you did say go to your written page, I have not read my manual because I have eye disease.

[@daleriff]

Hey Tony I got an coolpix l830 Is it the same as your l840 an are they a good starter camera 📷

Just found one a basement clean out from a customer. Came with everything including a card and bag. It's my first point and shoot camera. I have all types of DSLR cameras I've purchased over the years. I was surprised to see it's a 12.1 megapixel camera. The new iPhone 14 is only a 12 megapixel camera. I'm hopefully I get some great shots with this little freebie 😊

I have seen this video about 10 times in the last 7 or 8 years and there is always something new to learn, I am still using my 520 and your videos are a good reminder of how much fun it is. THANK YOU.

[@toddiepie]

Well that's the best 43 minutes I've spent since buying my Coolpix530 some years back! I wish I had come across it earlier, thanks Tony for taking the time.

You're welcome!

This tutorial was better than the beginner photography class I paid for!!! Thanks so much looking forward to your next one.

[@mrsdimples8039]

this has really helped me. I have been using the camera for about 4 months and knew nothing about it, thank you

[@thanyathornputthuan5167]

how about it? I'm not sure will buy or not

[@deh7335]

I just bought a P900 the zoom is amazing! I just need to learn all the features to capture some amazing stuff. Thanks for this video

This was so great!!! I have the N L340... I started watching raw... then decided to actually get my camera and follow along.. best decision ever... Thank you so much!!!

[@cindybeckwith1533]

I enjoyed this tutorial. I really appreciate your list in the table of contents where you break down each topic by the minute marker! I will definitely be re-watching specific areas you spoke about as I learn to use my new Nikon camera. Thank you.

I’ve had this Nikon L830 and only used it once 6 years ago. I watched your tutorial and snapped a few shots what a difference. I also shut off the beep 😊 much better for candid shots . Great tutorial and I’m to take some winter shots Thanks again

[@albertski28]

Three years ago I switched from Nikon Coolpix P900 to Olympus Micro 4/3ds. Recently I was looking way back at some old photos that where taken by the P900 and they looked really good so I wanted to give this camera a second chance but kinda forgot how to use it. This was a good refresher for using the Nikon. Thanks tony!

[@zikriwaie109]

Great tip: set the timer at 2 second. This will definitely eliminate that annoying blur images and distorted auto-focus.

Tony I am new to photography but am SOOOOO glad to have found your videos, websites and books!!

[@TonyAndChelsea]

Glad you like them!

[@2Brian]

Excellent tutorial. Thorough and practical. Your voice and delivery are also clear and easy to understand. Thank you.

[@myrodeo100]

I've used one of these cameras to take videos of myself out in my shop building jewelry cases for years and never knew it had so many features. Thank you for this video. I learned a bunch from it and you made it easy to understand.

[@Cahaya100]

You explain so well and more informative than others. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. I love photography and taking videos. All my friends and family gave me so much compliments for all photos I took, and they all said I could make money as a photographer. However, I Never pay attention what’s in the cameras. Now, as I understand more from your tutorials, I am going to take it more seriously. Since iPhone have great camera, I stop using all my Nikons. But, since I’m planning to make my KZbin channels, I need many cameras for different angles. I found that you are the only one who explains details and generously. Thank you 🙏

[@Cahaya100]

I subscribed your channel. I love learning from you. You are the BEST!

[@SophieLovesMusic44]

I’ve had my coolpix b500 for over a year now and i have learned SO MUCH from this video! I even found out my laptop has a sd card slot (i kinda lost the cable)!!

Your hair is amazing! I just got my Coolpic camera back out of storage & I’ve forgotten everything! Thanks for this video. It’ll help.

[@carolrobinson-u2v]

I love my Nikon Coolpix and your tutorial answered alot of my questions on the features I was not sure of so thank you and you were easy to follow your a good speaker.

[@cathyselby5968]

Thanks! The only piece of advice I will disregard is about the lens cap. Mine came with a strap. I attached it to the camera stap. POP! In a split second it is off, but never lost. And in the conditions I am often in, wind and thus probable grit, on mule rides, that extra protection is a good idea.

[@WillFastie]

My favorite digital camera of all time was the Nikon Coolpix 5700. I replaced it with a DSLR (D40, still in use) because the 5700 did not deliver the auto-focus and inter-shot time I needed. I haven't been convinced that any Coolpix since will deliver DSLR-like performance. My photographic needs are not complex or demanding. But I have hundreds of 5700 shots where the exposure lags what I thought I was shooting by a second or more. I still crave the simplicity, compactness, and economy of the 5700. I hope you'll examine Coolpix shooting performance in a future video.

[@jasontran2820]

turning off the beep part was so useful thank you.

[@gregrobinson2394]

Thanks for a good tutorial. Bought this camera a year ago but haven't used it much as I was not familiar with its capabilities. Watching your video has given me a much better understanding than trying to read the manual. A great camera for those who don't need a full SLR.

So much that I didn't have a clue about, now after watching, I feel more confident that I will be able to be more successful using this camera. I will be rewatching this video again and try to learn as much as possible. You really explained a lot to me.

[@MaximusPrime10278]

[@MrShawnknapp]

Thank you for this video. I love your videos, very informative.I just purchased a L840 for my KZbin channel, it replaced my canon ELPH 100 HS, although I don't see much difference in the videos, I assume it's because I don't know how to set it.So thanks again for the detailed settings instruction.

[@Colorado4x4]

[@4040chocolate]

Such a Helpful Video thank you So Much learned So much.

[@KathyCarson-qg5ty]

I just got a p950, which has a few features that these cameras don't. It can take an external mic, and it shoots in RAW. Thanks for explaining many of the controls and how they will influence the photo outcome. You were very understandable, and didn't go overboard as some videos do, which cam be overwhelming to an inexperienced photographer. I did have a difficult time seeing what you were doing some of the time because your hand was in the way, or your filming camera wasn't actually pointing at the screen you wanted us to see. Also, I wish you were focusing on something other than your computer screen so that we could see the effects of what you were doing. Thanks for the tips about accessories we might find handy, and Google Picaso, which I will absolutely check out.

The little bit more expensive cards, are better for traveling though. The cheap ones seems to be unstable in weather/temperature changes.

You might try a faster SD card. Good luck!

[@michaelschmidt7014]

@@TonyAndChelsea It is not with the SD card but the length of time it will record then go to an auto stop there is loads of space left on the SD card. This is why I think it is a firmware in the camera. Do you know of any one who hacks these?

[@dougjohnson9628]

Hi Tony - Great video!! At least I learned how to shut that annoying beep off-THANKS!! The only other feature I would like to see is to be able to disable the auto shut off mode. I have a Nikon Coolpix B500.. I do many hours of wildlife pictures and it becomes a continuing nightmare of having to turn the camera back on after it goes into battery saver mode or shuts down completely. Invariably; it will shut down just when things get interesting. I have missed more once in a lifetime shots because of this very aggravating feature that, as far as I know cannot be controlled by the user. Is there a shut off that I'm not aware of? I have not downloaded the newer firmware or software for this camera. I'm kind of apprehensive to do so in fear that something may happen and I'll loose the camera completely. Thanks... I'll be watching for more of your videos.

[@ibbarb]

Love your video. But so confusing when on portrait episode. Following closely, but my camera didn't have the icon portrait. Finally found it by clicking on the moon that came up under Scenes, then the panorama icon, finally it added that 2nd row of selections. Whew! Finally understand that whatever (scenes) was selected last appeared under Scenes the scenes icon. After hours of researching your video over and over and reading the manual over and over. I get it!
