Beach Videos & Pics taken with My Samsung Note 10+ Camera


SAMSUNG Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G Factory Unlocked Android Cell Phone 256GB US Version Smartphone Pro-Grade Camera 8K Video 108MP High Res, Phantom Black

Hey guys,

Check it out!

I specifically went to the beach last Sunday to take photos with my new camera, Nikon Coolpix P950. Testing the pictures and video quality. Of course, most important of all, trying out the 83x zoom. It was pretty awesome despite the drizzling and cloudy day.

I'm actually more used to taking photos and videos on my mobile phone. Currently, I'm still using my favorite Samsung Note 10+. Yes, I can take photos on my P950 and transfer them via Bluetooth to my phone. It's a bit of a hassle. That's why I decided to also take pictures and videos with my phone.

Those pictures though are meant for quickly sharing on my Instagram, Facebook, and sometimes Twitter. You can add me to these accounts. The only difference is probably the zooming capability. Another feature of the P950 is being able to use the Raw format for your pictures.

I read that the P950 is using the same type of small phone camera sensor. Maybe, that's why some wish that Nikon would add a better sensor for any future Nikon P1100? I also hope, it'll come with better low light capability. That would complete an all-rounder DSLR with high zooming.

I'm intrigued with the Nikon Z 6II FX-Format Mirrorless Camera's claim of low light capability. Why can't they put this into the P950? Of course, the P950 was only meant for wildlife and watching birds. But, like I said, everyone loves an all-rounder.

Talking about better cameras, I'm also intrigued by how good the zooming capability of the Samsung S21 Ultra 5G. Which claims 100x Space zoom. I actually tried taking airplane videos on my Note 10+. It's only able to 10x zoom. But, I managed to zoom to the words inscribed on the side when it was a little near.

I just did a search on youtube and yes, the S21 Ultra 100x zoom is pretty awesome. How cool is that? They finally, make a mobile phone with a camera that can zoom to the freaking moon. And, the pictures are pretty sharp too. Does that make my P950 redundant?

Definitely, if you can do all the things a typical DSLR can do. The best thing about the camera phone is that you can also use it for other stuff. It's already like a mini-computer. The size is also a big factor as you can literally put it inside your pocket. I can't put my P950 inside my pocket can I?

I've been wanting to get the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2. It's basically a tablet phone that you can fold in half. If it has the S21 Ultra 100x zoom camera, it'll be perfect. For example, as a Youtuber, I can take a video of the moon, un-fold the phone, and edit the video in tablet mode. Which is much better.

The Samsung Z Fold could be the next evolution of the mobile phone computer. The all-in-one powerful computer that fits in your pocket. For the moment, I'm still happy with my Samsung Note 10+ and using my P950 for that extra zooming capability.



Pictures above were taken using my Samsung Note 10+. I didn't do any editing. Usually, you can edit them before uploading to Instagram or Facebook. For my camera, I've actually bought a UV filter. Which supposedly will make my picture color more pronounced.

Nikon Coolpix P950 - 83x Zoom - Drizzly Day At The Beach


Nikon COOLPIX P950 Compact Digital Camera with 83x Optical Zoom Super Telephoto Lens Bundle Including Triple Battery + Deco Gear Backpack Bag Case + Filter Kit + Photo Video Software and Accessories

Hey guys,

Check it out!

Well, I had a fun Sunday at the beach. Taking videos and pictures with my new Nikon Coolpix P950. One problem though, it was lightly drizzling. I was always looking for some cover for my camera. It's not waterproof. One time, a drop of rainwater splash right on top of the camera.

Lucky for me it didn't go into any open area like the mic. I'm definitely going to look for something that would give my camera good waterproofing protection. I actually found them selling on Amazon. You can check it out here.

It rains heavily in the morning but I was hoping it will stop. And, the weather will get sunny and bright later in the day like yesterday, Saturday. But, it didn't. Even if it rains, I thought it would still be okay, as I can take videos and pictures of the rain.

The good thing is that this will be a good experience for me using the P950. As I've never used a DSLR camera before. Next time, I'll be more prepared. One thing I learned is that for some reason, the camera will shake terribly if you don't control your hands when zooming at far objects.

I had a hard time taking videos of the airplane. Once, I managed to zoom in, I would shake and lose sight of the plane. Mind you, I was using the tripod. I'm not sure if I should use the tripod on a moving plane. Taking videos of moving boats was a lot easier.

The P950 does have a good stabilizer. It's only when you're zooming at far objects that the shaking might be too much. Although, I didn't really have any problem taking videos and pictures of the moon. Check out my videos of the moon here.

Using the tripod is good. My problem is when having to take a moving object. Sometimes, I'll move the camera a bit and hold the position without locking. That's when it'll start shaking. I really need to master taking videos of moving objects.

It doesn't help that I have bad breathing habits. My breathing is very irregular and sometimes loud. People will give me the look when they hear my breathing. I'm actually afraid that the P950 will pick up on it. The mic is actually not that bad. And, you can add your own camera mic if you want to.

I went to the beach with my nephew and you can actually hear a bit of his voice in the video. I had to shush him up. There were parts I had to cut because he was too loud. At least, I know the mic works. I wasn't sure how good it is as I've never really tested it.

Going to the beach was a good idea with all the sounds of the waves, the big loud motor of the boats, and people talking in the background. You can feel as if you're at the beach with me. The funny thing is, I didn't actually think about sound when taking videos. Normally, I just put background music during editing.

I was concentrating more on taking good pictures and videos. Of course, I also wanted to test the 83x zooming capabilities and it didn't disappoint. But, like I've said, I need to learn to control my hands at full zoom. On whole, it was such a fun day minus the drizzling.

Nikon Coolpix P950 - 83x Zoom Beautiful Moon Shot!


Nikon COOLPIX P950 Compact Digital Camera with 83x Optical Zoom Super Telephoto Lens Bundle Including Triple Battery + Deco Gear Backpack Bag Case + Filter Kit + Photo Video Software and Accessories

Hey guys,

Check it out!

Finally! Got my very own close-up pictures and videos of the freaking moon. I've been wanting to use my new Coolpix Nikon P950 to do that for a while. But, the moon been hiding from me. In fact, it was pretty cloudy at first but it finally shows in full view.

I think I mush it up a little bit though. I had used the moon scene but turn to manual focus. Couldn't fine-tune to be sharper. Having bad eyesight doesn't help. I couldn't really see in the small LCD screen. But, in the end, when I turn to auto-focus, it got better.

I'm still dabbling around with the settings. That's why there's the red or is it orange effect. No matter, as I'm more excited about being able to an 83x zoom close-up of the moon. Wow! it's really incredible. If NASA or any country had built a base there, I'm pretty sure, you can even see it.

Like everyone else, I'm curious about the moon. Yes, I'm also interested to know if there's actually a secret base or even aliens. Okay, you never know. With the capability of this camera, it'll be cool to be able to zoom in on weird things in the sky. Too bad, the P950 doesn't have night vision.



ROXTAK 80" Camera Tripod & Monopods, Professional Compact Aluminum Travel Tripods for DSLR with 360 Degree Ball Head and 2 Quick Release Plates, Compatible for Canon, Nikon, Sony, Samsung, Olympus&Panasonic

Yesterday, was my first time taking pictures and videos of the moon. I think I can do much better next time. A tripod is really important. There's a certain part of the video which was kind of shaky, as I move it to center the moon. Also, I'll just use the auto-focus and stop dabbling mid-video taking.

I guess that's part of the learning process to use the camera. I'm going out tomorrow with my family to the beach. Of course, I'm going to bring my camera and take some pictures and videos with it. Would be fun and also help me dabble and learn with the camera Scene settings.



K&F Concept 67mm Magnetic MCUV+CPL+ND1000 +Filter Adapter Ring Lens Filter Kit (4 Pieces) HD Import Optical Glass with Multi-Layer Coated Filter Set for Camera Lens

I bought myself a 67mm UV filter for my camera. I'm interested to see if it'll improve the quality of the picture. I'll be just using the normal and jpeg setting. I'm kinda lazy to do any touch-up with the pictures I took. Maybe, I'll try out raw later on.

For the moment, I'm just interested in using the camera for taking pictures and videos. I'm already interested in looking and learning about other cameras. I saw the Nikon promo for the Nikon Z 6II FX-Format Mirrorless Camera on their main (Amazon) store. If only I have the money. Lol.



Nikon Z 6II FX-Format Mirrorless Camera Body w/NIKKOR Z 24-70mm f/4 S, Black

I'm intrigued to know how good it is for low-light settings. It'll be great for a night out shooting funs. It'll be worth the money if you're a professional photographer. Taking photos and videos of movie star night events or whatever. Definitely, not for us mere mortals.

I know they're expensive but, didn't really look at the price till I got the P950. I actually got my camera for half the normal price as it's a demo unit. The good news is, it looks as though it's new and never been open or used. I'm not even sure what they did with the demo unit as I got it online.

There are many pretty cheap cameras available. If you just want to take great fun or holiday photos. Before this, I just used my phone camera which is already pretty good. You can quickly edit it right on the phone and upload it online to youtube or others photo websites.

But, then again, you can't 83X zoom to the moon like the Nikon Coolpix P950!

Nikon Coolpix P950 - UV Filter - Is that a dragonfly?


Nikon COOLPIX P950 Compact Digital Camera with 83x Optical Zoom Super Telephoto Lens Bundle Including Triple Battery + Deco Gear Backpack Bag Case + Filter Kit + Photo Video Software and Accessories

Hey guys,

Check it out!

Well, my K&F Concept UV filter and tempered glass LCD screen protector finally arrived. The 67mm filter fit nicely to my Nikon Coolpix P950 and so did my screen protector. I wasn't sure how to install the screen protector at first, and I think I made the mistake of peeling the adhesive too.

Lucky for me, there are two of them and only after doing a search on Google, I realized the type that I bought. Silly me. I thought I had to peel off everything. I might buy another set later on, but for now, as long as it's doing the job of protecting my LCD screen.

I remembered decades ago I saw a guy with a cracked LCD screen. I don't think he put any screen protector. I asked him, why didn't he send it for repair. He just smiles and gave me some random answer. That's why I freaking worry about the screen.

I wonder if there's any screen protector for the lens? Lol. Well, maybe if it comes with filters too. Okay, I'm a newbie. I might ask stupid questions sometime. But, I'm really enjoying it. I'm not sure how good the filter is as I didn't take any pictures before putting it on the UV filter.



K&F Concept 67mm MC UV Protection Filter, 18 Multi-Layer Coated HD/Waterproof/Scratch Resistant UV Filter with Nanotech Coating, Ultra-Slim UV Filter for 67mm Camera Lens

Nevertheless, I took some pictures and videos of the evening sky outside my apartment and I think it kinda looks good. I also tried out several settings, changing from auto to manual focus. Using the dial and the menu settings. The more I dabble with the camera, the more I learn how to use it.

You can check out the video here. The coolest part is when I thought I saw a bird flying near the top of the tree branch but it turns out to be a dragonfly. I was pretty excited as now, I get a chance to test the 83x zoom capability of the camera.

I had to play around with the manual and auto-focus as sometimes, it seems it won't focus during the auto. It was also kinda dark with the evening sky as the backdrop. But, it actually looks kinda beautiful with the dragonfly sitting on top of the tree branch.

I can imagine people using the dragonfly picture and putting some wise words. Like, I've said before, I can't draw but making art from photography is something I'm interested in. I just remembered that because I took the video in 4K, snipping pictures from the video won't degrade the picture quality.



ParaPace Professional Camera Cleaning Kit (with Waterproof Case), Including Cleaning Solution/5 APS-C Cleaning Swabs/Lens Pen/Air Blower/Cleaning Cloth for DSLR Cameras(Canon, Nikon, Sony)

The picture below is a snip from my youtube video. It was saved to 1080P from the original 4K video. So, the picture quality might not be that accurate. I didn't do any edit after I transfer from my camera to my laptop. The transfer took a couple of minutes.

I'm not sure if it's my laptop or my eyesight is going bad. It's hard to really see the quality of the pictures and videos I took. I prefer not to edit them. I'll end up messing around, testing the Nikon editing software, and wasting time. Lol.











I didn't save the pictures and videos in raw format. I just set it to normal jpeg. Unless I know I'm going to mess around with the pictures later. The thing is, I want it to look just the way they are. With all the imperfections. But, I definitely want it to be sharp and beautiful.

Also, normally, I'll frame the pictures a certain way to get what I wanted. I want my pictures as they are seen through my eyes. I'm still not sure about the zooming though. I'm wondering why I can't focus either during manual or auto. That's why I'm still dabbling around with the settings.

I still have a long way to learn but I'm in no hurry. This is like a new hobby for me. I've always wanted a camera of my own and this modern Nikon Coolpix P950 is so perfect for me. I might move on to other cameras once I gained enough knowledge and experience.

Nikon Coolpix P950 - DSLR Camera & Accessories Shoulder Bag


CADeN Camera Bag Case Shoulder Messenger Photography Bag with Laptop Compartment 14", Tripod Holder, Compatible for Nikon, Canon, Sony, DSLR SLR Mirrorless Cameras Waterproof Black

Hey guys,

Check it out!

Got me a shoulder bag for my Nikon Coolpix P950. And, I'm loving it. It seems a little cramp though. It's because there are two pad dividers and the P950 is pretty big. In the end, I just use one of the dividers to cover the top side. Double protection!

I actually wanted to get the shoulder bag that enables you to bring along a tripod below the bag. But, when I wanted to order it, it was out of stock. So, I end up getting the simple shoulder bag. The most important thing is to have a protection case for my new camera.



CADeN Camera Bag Case Shoulder Messenger Photography Bag with Laptop Compartment 14", Tripod Holder, Compatible for Nikon, Canon, Sony, DSLR SLR Mirrorless Cameras Waterproof Black

One of the camera bags I like is the usual backpack but with a slot that you can slide out from the side. Pretty nifty. You can put the rest of your accessories inside the top side and the pockets available. I think if you're just using a digital camera, you don't need one with so many pads.

I have a split disc. That means a bad back problem. Carrying a messenger bag isn't a good idea. But, I didn't like the design of most camera backpacks. That's why I thought of getting this shoulder bag that can fit inside one of my bigger backpacks.



Thule Aspect DSLR Camera Bag Backpack, Black

I just discover this backpack, from PGYTECH and it looks to have many features that I like. It even includes a small bag that you can carry by itself. The best part is that you can quickly access your camera from the backpack side.

You can even use it as your travel bag. For those who travel a lot for their pictures and videos. I kinda like that. But, I'm the lazy type. I'll have to go out more since I've already got my own camera. I'm already planning to go out to the beach this Sunday to test the P950.



PGYTECH OneMo Camera Backpack 25L with Shoulder Bag for DJI Air 2S, DJI FPV, Sony, Canon, Nikon, Drone, DJI Mavic Mini 2/Air 2, OSMO Action/Pocket, DSLR/SLR Mirrorless, Camera Tripod

I'm pretty excited to see what I can do with the camera. Most of the time, I just took pictures and videos with my Samsung Note 10+. Which is actually pretty good. But, I remembered one time at a beach in Thailand, where I wanted to zoom at the nearby Islands. Of course, I can't use my phone to zoom.

Really wish, I had the P950 back then. It's fun to play with the 83x zooming capabilities. Although, you can't take good pictures when zooming that far out. I'm actually still waiting for my camera UV lens filter and the LCD screen protector to arrive.

I've been preparing and buying accessories for my camera. Also been checking out some of the videos on the camera and the pictures and videos taken. Most of them are of the wildlife. But, some in urban areas are pretty good. Especially, in the low light. I'm assuming they have to edit them though.

If you have been reading my last few posts, you'll know that I'm pretty much a newbie in photography. Well, if you don't count using the camera phone. But, I'm curious to try out the UV filter. Especially, on the P950. Wondering, if it would really make the pictures and videos much better.

Anyway, look out for more blog and youtube channel posts on my adventure with the Nikon Coolpix P950. Can't wait to try it out this Sunday. Woohoo!
