That shot of saturn is insane!

I got the P1000 for last Xmas & I love it! I have the D-80 as well, but the P1000 is so much more convenient for on-the-go photography. Just not having to continually change out my lenses is a big plus. I did purchase a separate plug into the wall battery charger and 2 extra batteries so I won't have to sit and wait for my camera to charge itself. :) And you will need a big, heavy duty tripod to handle the full telescoped weight of this behemoth of a camera. I seen the stripes on Jupiter a couple nights ago, but the wind blowing against the lens and tripod just couldn't afford me the clear image or stay on point for me as I wanted. I got frustrated and gave up. But my lunar photography blows my mind how it picks up way more than either of my expensive telescopes can! Maybe I just don't know how to use them properly? IDK, but I do know that I love this camera.

Still looks pretty impressive for a 'point and shoot' camera especially if you compare it to the size of a lens at half the focal length. Obviously it's never gonna compare to a dslr but those can cost several times this camera just for the lens. Also about the size, after seeing what a lens with a large focal length is like, I thought this camera looked small!

Thank you for the review. I am going back and forth but this helped!

Thinking of getting this for my wife. We are amateur birding photographers. She finds the Lumix GH4 too complicated for video. P1000 would be perfect for her by the looks of the controls and it's more limited menu. Just not sure if her small hands will be able to properly control in handheld mode. I know it's only 3 pounds, so that's a huge plus. I haul around the Nikon D500 with the 200-500 zoom, so by comparison, she might appreciate that. Thanks for the excellent review.

I like the weight it helps to steady the camera if you are hand holding shots. Video is awesome very sharp 4K. I bought a hot shoe boom microphone and it improved the sound tremendously. If you are using a lot of zoom get a tripod....something fairly heavy duty to combat wind shake on the extended lens. Buy it, it is a very good camera.

This is probably the best review of the P1000 here on YT. Thanks for that. If there's one thing I d like to have seen more, is a side-by-side comparison at *equal* focal lengths e.g. both at 600mm and 1200mm. Having a shot with both maxed out (1200mm and 3000mm) makes sense for giving an idea of that the extra reach of the P1000 looks like. But I would have like to have an idea how the P1000 performs at equiv FLs with the Lumix. That would allow most of us to get an impression of IQ on shorter FLs. e.g. could the Lumix have superior IQ at 600mm or 1000mm? It's a question worth answering, as most might not often use the P1000 at its maximum reach.

Excellent video professional quality. Amazing piece of kit and seems to present grat shots

as per 3:95 (approx), you do not have to use only the wall adapter to charge the battery. You can use a USB cable from your laptop to charge as well as the wall adapter.

Not sure if the P1000 is able to do this, but FZ80's price point, battery life and light weight is a win for me with 1/3 of the price :D

Think seriously about it before spending all that money.. Do you really need a super zoom camera? What type of photography are you looking to do? There are some great cameras out there for nowhere near the price of this Nikon super zoom. Do you want to do street photography? Or do you wish to do, micro photography, or night shots? For example, I have the Fujifilm Finepix s99OOW with a 50x zoom. I hardly ever use that zoom facility though, as I am more interested in taking shots of the subjects I have just mentioned. The s99OOW is nowhere near the price of the Nikon displayed, yet it takes stunning shots. I know what type of photography I want to do so that is half the battle won. So, as I said, before you spend all that money on a camera whose zoom facility you may not even use, think seriously about what type of photography you wish to produce.

Great review! I was really interested in getting one but out of curiosity I went and look around in the pre-owned market and see if there's any P900 for sale. I found myself a like-new condition P900 at less than half the price of a new P1000. Sure, it lacks the 3000mm zoom but 2000mm is also fantastic. Much smaller and lighter too.

@Angelo Cella Back in 2006, the EU controversially decided to classify high-end digital cameras as video recorders, which attached a customs duty of 5-12% for digital cameras imported into Europe. The classification was decided not just based on digital cameras' improving abilities to record video through its lens and sensor, but their ability to record direct input from external sources like televisions. A home video recorder tax would theoretically offset money lost from users recording movies off broadcast television or cable onto digital devices, though the EU has never been very clear on the tax's intent. The tax's consequence, though, has been felt in every digital camera user looking to use a DSLR in place of a camcorder, as camera manufactures would rather limit recording capability in software than raise the price of its cameras (or lower their margins).

The camera is nose heavy fully extended. Buy the remote control. In video mode it is slow to auto focus so pan slowly. As said here low light is a problem. Shooting wildlife at a distance is awesome ...suggestion have a sunny day to shoot. It has a preset mode for birds and works well for that purpose....suggestion make sure bird is not in an area with a lot of shade ISO 400 and below or you will get some noise.

I use a lumix gf3 with a 100-300mm that's a 200mm-600mm equivalent, or I can use an adapter and use my sigma 150-600 That's 300-1200mm equivalent, but with that set up and weight, plus no image stabilisation it has to be used on a tripod. Lumix gf 3 is a micro 4/3rds system. I guess it could be done with a 1inch sensor but it'd be 4 times the weight and twice as long and cost a few thousand bucks. It's made at a price point to sell, designing it isn't the main issue, it's trying to sell it, who would buy a 1 inch sensor camera with a 25-2000mm equivalent lens that weighs 4kg and cost 3-$4,000.. Even at this price they'd need to be able to sell a lot to be worth the cost of development and manufacturing of it. The P900 is damn good for what it Is, the p1000 I don't think will sell that well, the kind of people who buy these types of bridge cameras aren't the type who want to pay that kind of money for it. It needs to drop down to around $700 ... £600ish before it starts selling in any great numbers

I think it will drop to around 700 after 12 months, it's new so price is high, i was trying to find the launch price of the P900 so see how much it had come down by since launch (if any). The 1/2.3 sensor is about a crop factor of 6, which is as you have said why the zoom is so large, put in a bigger sensor and the zoom would have to be redesigned, maybe not much heavier, but larger yes. As for price, yeah a £1000 (in the UK) is way to much for the performance of a mobile phone camera in terms of sensor.

awesome work Jay!

That Panasonic you mention starts at 20mm (equivalent), the Nikon at 24mm. I gladly trade in the 1200-3000mm range for more wide angle!

Is it also posebil to charge battery whit powerbank 10kmA 20kmA ? And at same time keep recording video photo ? I guess its posebel so you can continu more than 30 minutes whit using USB powerbank togeter.

The price scared me away ...

Nice camera and review as well

Good coverage ... great video ___Thanks for the tips

I'm still waiting for the p1100 so I can see into the past and future

Thanks for the excellent review. I just unboxed mine. Nikon support is rubbish, they do not have a simple video demonstration of this camera that I can find. I now know how to use the zoom functions and the focus ring. I will keep exploring the camera. Thanks again

Even with its cons its still impressive kit

what attachments do you use for the external monitor? It looks like it connects to the tripod and or head or even on top of the P1000. I've been researching P1000 and tripods so far your setup looks the best

Thanks for your honest opinion am thinking twice of buying this camera but would have been nice if this camera can take the full resolution for moving objects.

If you get too much zoom, you will start to be able to see distortions caused by the air refraction. So although the P1000 has an incredible zoom, you’re very much gonna get the same stuff with the Panasonic FZ80 because the zooming is just enough before the distortion ruins your image.

I don't think the P1000 is any better. Even in the video you can see the FZ80 is near as good. It doesn't zoom as far, but the P1000@3000mm is only pixel junk. Digitally zoom in the picture of the FZ80 and you would get the same result. lol!

I went from my F801/F3. Film camera's to a Canon digital.. WHoops. By Bye. then a P500. then P600. as long as you stay BELOW the digital Zoom on them they give fine shots. All the Digital zoom does is select centre of largest zoom range and blow it up. You want bigger. Get closer. I'm old school never play with my shots. what I take is what I use. We go O'seas every yr and use both my P600, with My Samsung phone for movie type shots. At 77 yrs my eyes tell my Brain. "You ain't gonna see any better than that with these eyes so I'm fine. (They pretty good as long as you don't want action stills. The mechanisms are too slow to react. My Nikon P801. 8000 shutter was best I ever had. even over the F3 for Jet sprints. Arrows and even Projectiles on Macro. But film too exxy for the working man nowadays, even processing your own.

@@REDxFROG To my opinion the 3000 mm shot is not pixel junk. It is not as good as the more normal range, but it is actually surprisingly good for such an insane range. Most of the degradation can be attributed to the atmosphere. We have to keep in mind what we can see there is not possible to see usually. I have seen moon photos taken with that camera, which shame pics taken with a $ 4000 telescope. Lastly, remember what you had to pay for a single 3000 mm photo lens. I think a not perfect picture is still better than no picture. I would be glad if I even had the FZ80 mentioned, but the P1000 opens a new door for many of us.

Great review, thanks!

The focus ring is a huge improvement over other point and shoots. Manual focus dexterity is important

@@mroldnewbie At such incredible zoom-numbers, trust me that a mechanical zoom-ring has to have a gigantic throw to be able to focus onto the thing you like. My Olympus MFT 50-150 mm or so lens at the far tele-end will give you a 300 mm tele (35mm equivalent). The Olympus lens has the great advantage of having a switchable focus ring. By pulling it towards you while holding the camera, the focus works fully mechanical. Push it forward and it's electromechanical. At the far-tele end (and especially with the 1,4 x teleconverter used as well) the mechanical focus throw is waaay to small to accurately focus on things. As you try to focus on that specific spot, you usually start 'tapping' the ring in the hope you get the right point into focus. In reality, you keep overshooting that point and you will switch to electromechanical focus, which, especially at both far ends of the lens, give far more fine control over focus. Even my mechanically coupled videolenses (all full-mechanical by the way, exposure, zoom ánd focus is all directly coupled) that are meant to be focused by hand are quite hard when you get to the far tele-end of them. Their throw is better (and the ring doesn't have the same 'stickyness' of the Olympus) but it's still quite a challenge to focus on exactly thát thing you want in focus. And I'm talking about 1/3 inch sensor cameras there: my videocameras with interchangeable lenses don't have bigger sensors. The problems only get worse with bigger sensors as the depth of field usually decreases.

This camera needs a tripod for capturing image at extreme zoom...

Good review, thanks.

I'm glad you showed footage of aircraft because that's the exact reason I'm buying it. I'm an avid planespotter and need something better than my Canon Powershot SX420. This camera is expensive as hell but it's a price I'm willing to pay.

Anyone catching UFOs with this?

Amazing afffordable gear for bird hunter and wildlife!

Thank you very much for this review!! I've been drooling over this camera since it was announced back in 2018. In my country, Chile, the price it's 1.000.000 chilean pesos... that it's a really big amount of money... and obiously out of my reach.... My naive hope it's that one day the price will drop to a reacheable level... but it's not likely to happen. Greetings from Chile!!

I would love one of these, but can’t trust Nikon point and shot because of widely know firmware issue with the Nikon p520. On another note, you have done a fantastic job with this video and your practical common sense review.

I'll keep my P900 for awhile. The P1000 is massive.

@@8PMFORMULA You are a person of very little quality!

I looked at this and ended up getting the Lumix FZ-1000. The image quality is better, as is the weight. The only thing the Nikon gives you is the zoom, and the Lumix does just fine with its zoom. The Nikon zoomed in shows too much wobble. The 20.1 sensor is much nicer on the Lumix, as well. If you buy the monster, you'll be fighting the weight, the smaller sensor, the noise and other things. I don't think this will be on the market much longer.
