Nikon Coolpix P950 - Swimming Godzilla?

Hey guys,

Check it out!

I don't know why every local park I went to, I'm sure to find this big lizard walking around or just swimming around in the lake. I was resting at the park shelter when I saw something moving in the water. At first, I thought it was a snake or piece of wood. Turn out it's the lizard!

I was actually still re-charging the camera battery with my power bank. Luckily, the lizard still hanging around at the side of the lake. That's why I love the zooming capability of the Nikon Coolpix P950. I can discreetly zoom in to just its head popping out of the water.

It must have noticed me as it decided to swim to the other side. The way it swam reminds me of the movie, Godzilla. Also, it didn't go under the water. Makes me wonder if they actually do that in real life. Well, the movie always exaggerates to make it more interesting.

There was a couple of time when I make the mistake of moving too near the animals to take pictures or videos. When I can simply just use the camera to zoom. I guess that's why they say the Nikon P1000, P900 and P950 are best for wildlife.

In one of my pictures, I didn't realize there was a dragonfly on the branch far out in the water. I only notice it after uploading it on my video. Again, without the zooming capability of my camera, I wouldn't have seen it. 

That's one of the advantages of the Nikon Coolpix P950. In fact, I'm frequently using zoom to take pictures and videos. It actually came naturally to me. My nephew saw one guy with his camera and big lens. I told him, he's probably a pro.

Ok, maybe it's just his interest in camera and photography. But, the kind of lens he's carrying, that probably cost more than my camera. I wouldn't be able to afford it. I got my P950 at half the price because it's a demo version. And, it still looks brand new.

The P950 is a great starter camera for me. It's probably for you too if you've never owned a point-and-shoot camera. Especially with the 83x zoom. You can take videos in 4K and upload them in 1080P. The quality of the image would be better than being downgraded from 1080P.

Another great thing about the camera that I keep forgetting to talk about is how stable it is, even without a camera tripod. Ok, if you really want a more steady shot, then you'll need one. But, for moments where you don't want to lose a shot like me taking the video of the lizard swimming, it does help.

I don't have steady hands. And, it does shake a lot when you're at maximum zoom. I found that out when taking videos of boats and planes without a tripod. I also managed to save up the battery before I finished getting what I wanted.

Also, my 128GB SD card storage has finally dropped below the 100GB mark. I might have to get a new card soon. I'm planning to buy a new card every time it's full and keep all my pics and videos on it. I don't trust any backup HD drive as they have failed me time and again.

Don't forget to check out the swimming Godzilla video. I might talk about another shorter video of the black lizard which I took last week. So, keep coming back to my blog!
