my nikon z fc 28mm se video sample - woodlands jetty #shorts


Nikon Z fc DX-Format Mirrorless Camera Body (Black) 1673 with 28mm F2.8 SE NIKKOR Z Special Edition Lens Bundle with Deco Gear Microphone + LED + Filter Kit + Backpack + Photography Accessories

Hey guys,

Check it out!

I'm really having fun with my new Nikon Z FC retro design-style camera. Yup, I can see people looking at the camera when I'm out and about taking pictures with it. I bought it with the 28mm se lens and it's pretty sharp. Comparing, it to my Nikon P950, I think there's a difference in style. 

Well, maybe because the lenses are different. Whereas the P950 has an 83x optical zoom and 2000mm digital zoom. I love using the zooming lens. I practically use it for taking pictures of everything. Meanwhile, you're stuck with just 28mm and you're the one having to move to take the pictures.

My first camera was the Nikon P950. I bought it because it could zoom to the moon. I also bought it at half the price as it was used as a demo. But, everything still looks like new. I still have it, and I'm still loving it. Now, I have a second camera the Nikon z fc and it's pretty much a different beast.

I finally get to go out and tried it out on a public holiday. The feeling is very much a different camera. Especially, with just the 28mm lens. I kept missing the zoom capability of the P950. But, it's a prime lens so I used it as it is and that's why I said the experience is much different.



NIKKOR Z 28mm f/2.8 (SE) Lens

The Nikkor Z 28mm SE aka special edition autofocus lens is very sharp. The bokeh is nice and definitely good even if you can't zoom. There's a video where the guy said if there's only one lens he could have it's the 28mm. I'm still learning but one of the reasons I decided to get it with the camera.

The Nikkor Z 40mm SE for the z fc is said to be coming out the early next year 2023. I might be getting it. I'll have time to save up for it. I was thinking of getting the Viltrox 13mm lens with super wide-angle autofocus. I saw a video sample and it was a really sharp and wider shot.



VILTROX 13mm F1.4 f/1.4 Nikon z Mount Lens, Super Wide Angle Autofocus APS-C Lens for Nikon Z50 Z30 Z6II Z7II Z6 Z7

As a newbie in photography, I'm really excited and want to try practically every lens there is available for the Nikon z fc. I can't really get my hands on those expensive lenses though. As long as it's within my budget, I'll definitely get it. Especially, if it helps my photos and videos look better.

I've already got my hands on the Nikon NIKKOR Z DX 50-250mm f/4.5-6.3 VR Lens. Still waiting for a good time to go out and test it. I basically bought it because I wanted the zoom capabilities. Just like my Nikon P950. Although, using zoom on the p950 is much faster, for me.

I haven't yet test fully the Nikkor Z Dx 50-250mm. So, I can't really comment on how good it is. I'm still waiting for a good view of the moon to see how good it is for taking moon pictures and videos. It's the rainy season and even my room now is getting dark as I type this.

I did a quick zoom test and it was pretty sharp. Can't find anything interesting far-off to zoom out from my house windows. Well, I'm not in a hurry anyway. It just started raining. I hope, it'll be sunny during the X'mas and New Year holidays. Planning to go to nature parks and use the 50-250mm lens.

Check out some of the pics I took with the Nikkor Z 28mm lens below:











Note* Last pic was edited and added on 22nd Jan 2023 to this post. 

The weather is kinda a little cloudy and moody. Would have taken better pictures if the sky was brighter and bluer. Other than that, I can't stay for the sunset pics as I cycle all the way there and wanted to reach home before it gets dark. Anyway, might not be a good sunset with all the clouds blocking. 

What do you guys think of the sample pics and videos? Check the full video here.

Nikon Coolpix P950 Day Pictures and Videos of The Moon 83x Optical Superzoom!


Nikon COOLPIX P950 Digital Camera || 24-2000mmLens || 16 MP || Built-in Wi-Fi || Vibration Reduction + Camera Kit Special Including 64GB Memory, Spider Tripod, Photo/Video Editing Package & More

Hey guys,

Check it out!

Yesterday, I caught a glimpse of the moon in the afternoon and I was thinking, this time, I'm gonna use my Nikon Coolpix P950 to take pictures and videos of it. I've already taken pics and vids of the moon at night. You can watch it here. Subscribe to my youtube channel if you haven't.

I'm still amazed at being able to view the moon this close. I've always dreamed of getting either the P900, P1000, or the P950. I decided to get the P950 because it was offered at half the price. It was used as a store demo. But, still looks great and working fine too.



Nikon COOLPIX P950 Digital Camera || 24-2000mmLens || 16 MP || Built-in Wi-Fi || Vibration Reduction + Camera Kit Special Including 64GB Memory, Spider Tripod, Photo/Video Editing Package & More

I was pretty lucky to be able to get the P950 at half the price. Now, I'm really enjoying using the camera to take photos and videos. It's a different feeling than using a mobile phone camera. Although, sometimes, it's much easier and faster to use. 

You don't always bring along your camera when you go out. Unless you intend to use it. Obviously, the advantage of the Nikon P950 is the zooming capability. If you like watching the moon, birds, and nature, this will be the camera to use as you can safely and quietly watch them from afar.

I think I've had this camera for over a month now and I'm getting the hang of using it. I've already got several 67mm camera filters and using them with the P950. But, I forget to test it yesterday when taking the moon shots and video.

I did use the camera moon settings and even tried out the different colors available. I think the blue color makes the moon looks a little too blue-ish. But, makes the pale sky looks more dark blue. I'm trying them all out so that I can choose to use them for other projects.

The most important thing is that I'm really enjoying photography and videography. I love taking pictures and videos with my P950. At the same time, I'm learning lots of new things. There are still many places I haven't been to and it makes me excited just thinking about it.

I already have a couple of videos up on my channel using the P950. You can check them out and tell me what you think of any ideas to make it better. I saved the videos on my Nikon Coolpix P950 playlist. It'll be easier to find. 

Check out some of the moon photos I took with my Nikon P950 below:


Moon setting with the grey color chosen.


Moon setting with blue color chosen.


The moon behind the cloud view.


A little further view of the moon.

I actually found myself relaxing and enjoying the clear blue sky. It's been raining a lot these couple of weeks so, to be able to enjoy this view is nice. That's why I've been wanting to get the Nikon camera with the zoom capability for a long while.

You don't really have to travel far or anywhere to enjoy the scenery. Especially, during this pandemic. I can even zoom in on planes that fly past my area but it's kinda difficult when you don't know their schedule. You can only hear them once in a while from my apartment.

my Nikon P950 83x optical SUPERZOOM #Shorts #Nikon


Nikon COOLPIX P950

Hey guys,

Check it out!

I'm really happy with my last outing and having fun taking pictures and videos with my Nikon Coolpix P950. Some people say, the quality of the pictures is not that good especially in low light but I'll post some pics below to show you and let you see for yourself.

I've always been amazed at photos taken by famous photographers. I also like some videos that you can watch on youtube. I like the one with a little bit of artistry in it. A few natural or lighting effects to make it more interesting. I'm not talking about CGI effects if you're wondering.



Nikon COOLPIX P950

I've always wanted a camera because of the inspiring photos and videos that I've seen. I want to be able to take good quality photos but more importantly, be a photography artist. I'm not good at drawing, so using a camera to make art is much easier.

Okay, it's not that easy. Like, I waited for the sun to set so that I can take beautiful pictures of it but because it was going to rain, it didn't show up. It was cloudy and only a little light was available. I still took some photos and videos but couldn't end it with the main event.

Luckily for me, it only rains after I reached home. My lady friend though was totally drenched as it rains before she could make it home. Yes, next time bring an umbrella, especially if you know it's going to rain from the weather forecast. Lol.

Before I forget, you can watch my outing video here. I didn't do any kind of editing except for the last few shots where I used the variable neutral density adjustable filter. There are too many pictures, so I'm kinda lazy to edit them. Except, when I posted individually on social media. 



Nikon COOLPIX P950 Digital Camera MFR 26532 Bundle + 128GB High Speed V30 Memory + Video U-Bracket + Bag, HD Filters & More

If you upload your pics on social media, you can use their editor to add more color or use different kinds of lightings. Now, I try using different kinds of settings when taking photos or videos with my P950. I like the ability to choose the color and also the choose the lightings.

It'll make your pictures a little more interesting or different. Instead of just those normal mundane pictures. As a beginner, I'm really loving this camera. It's not just learning about using it but getting more experienced in getting great pictures.

Another thing is that the Nikon Coolpix P950 really got a lot of attention from people. An older gentleman even came over to ask me about the camera. His daughter recommended he get the P950 especially since he likes to go bird watching. 

The 83x superzoom is really cool. I forget to tell him that it can even be used to zoom to the moon. For nature lovers, this camera zooming capability is really good. In fact, the P1000 3000mm zoom is even better but much heavier than mine P950 2000 max focal length.

Anyway, check out some of this night pictures that I took last Sunday below:

Singapore The Last Fishing Village - Nikon Coolpix P950 83x Optical SuperZoom #Nikon


Nikon COOLPIX P950 Digital Camera: with 83x Optical Zoom, 4K and Built-in Wi-Fi (Black) + 128GB 1200X SDXC Card + 2 EN-EL20 Batteries + Case + Flexible Tripod + Pro Bundle: International Version

Hey guys,

Check it out!

A friend asked me if I wanted to follow her to check out a place called #thelastfishingvillage, The Last Fishing Village. It's literally, the last fishing village as there's no other place like it anywhere else in the country. It's not that big though.

You can view the pictures and videos here on my Youtube Channel. Don't forget to like, share & subscribe. There are also a few other videos more on the P950 that I have uploaded to my channel. So, please check them out too. Thanks!

Of course, I wanted to go mainly because I now have the Nikon Coolpix P950. A chance for me to take interesting pictures and videos with it. As I've said before, photography and videography are still new to me. I'm still testing and checking out all the settings of the camera. 

I met an older gentleman with assuming his wife and we had a nice chat. He saw me showing the camera to my lady friend and finally came over. He's kinda a bird enthusiast and has been to many locations just to take pictures of birds.



Nikon COOLPIX P950

His daughter recommended getting the Nikon P1000 because of the zooming capabilities. It's obviously great for bird watching. He asked me if the camera was any good, how heavy it is, and which one is better. Well, the first thing I told him was that I'm still new at photography and at using the camera.

I told him, the camera had already been out for a while and the pictures might not be up to his standard if he's a pro. He showed me his kinda old looking small camera. I think it's a sony. The P950 is a tad heavy but certainly lighter than the P1000.



Photographer's Guide to the Nikon Coolpix P950: Getting the Most from Nikon's Superzoom Digital Camera

Well, one thing he really likes is the zooming. Keeps talking about it. Definitely, great for taking pictures and videos of birds. He showed me some eagle pics and one with prey on its leg. Pretty amazing. Although, I didn't see any while checking out the fishing village.

He also showed me some other birds' pics that he took. I definitely need to go and check out some of the places that he recommended me to go to. I'm not really a bird-watching enthusiast. But, I'm interested in taking some eagles' pics and videos.



COOLPIX P950 Compact Digital Camera with 83x Optical Zoom Super Telephoto Lens + Expo Premium Accessories Bundle

Even if you're not using zooming to watch birds or other animals, it's still great for zooming to a faraway area. I get to zoom to boats far out at sea or big ships docking at the other side of the land. Been many a time, I wanted to do it when I didn't have the camera before.

A lot of people actually were interested when they saw the camera. Maybe because most of them only use their mobile phones. I did see some other guys using different kinds of cameras. Next time, I might want to talk to them or check out their gears.

Check out some of my photos below:







More pics and videos on my upload youtube video here. Check it out!

I really had a fun day, taking pictures and videos. And, frankly, to me, the pics and videos that I took are pretty cool. But, I only realized, I didn't use the UV filter all the while. Anyway, I tried the neutral variable filter for the last few shots. Looking forward to more adventures with my P950!

One last thing, surprisingly, the battery lasts for almost 4 hours. Maybe because I seldom use the zoom?

Nikon Coolpix P950 - Pictures & Videos of Lakeside Garden


Nikon COOLPIX P950 Digital Camera w/NIKKOR 83x Optical Zoom Lens, 64GB Transcend SD Memory Card, Tripod, Bag, Lens Blower/Cleaner, and More

Hey guys,

Check it out!

Yup! I'm really enjoying using my new Nikon Coolpix P950 camera. Really, starting to get a hang of it. I've been to several local areas and taking pictures and videos for my youtube channel. You can check out the latest video here. Don't forget to like, share & subscribe!

Of course, I'm having fun. But, at the same time, it's actually pretty tiring. The lakeside garden that I went to was pretty large and part of it is actually under renovation. It's slated to open again next year. They're probably taking advantage of the Covid-19 pandemic.



Nikon COOLPIX P950 Digital Camera w/NIKKOR 83x Optical Zoom Lens, 64GB Transcend SD Memory Card, Tripod, Bag, Lens Blower/Cleaner, and More

I might come back again to visit it. There's gonna be a new Chinese & Japanese garden there. It'll be great to take more pictures and video then. Since had my new camera, I've been looking for cool places to go and take pictures and videos.

You still can't travel out of the country but, I'm taking the time to improve my amateur photography and videography skills. There's always something interesting in your own local area. You just need to have a good eye and find a good place for your adventure.



Photographer's Guide to the Nikon Coolpix P950: Getting the Most from Nikon's Superzoom Digital Camera

A lot of people complain that the pictures taken with the P950 aren't good. Especially, in low light. Well, kinda true. But, you can always edit it later. You can save it in raw file format. But, I find myself just sticking to jpeg. And, I'm too lazy to edit the pictures.

Normally, I'll just upload everything to one video. Be it pictures or videos. In that way, people can see the pictures and videos as it is. So, they'll know the quality taken with the P950. You can even see some of the pictures are dark and some a little lighter.

The weather has been kinda grey and moody these past few weeks. That's probably why you don't see any nice blue sky in my pictures and videos. Anyway, when the weather is nice and sunny, I'll be able to take different types of images soon.

I'm still enjoying using the Nikon P950. I really like the zoom capability. I'm always constantly playing with the zoom. Unlike when using my Samsung phone, which obviously doesn't have as good zooming capability, I just take pictures as it is. Far or near.

I still haven't got myself extra batteries for the P950. I really should get it. One battery isn't enough, especially when you use zooming a lot. The power bank isn't fast enough for recharging the original battery inside. Unless I can find a PowerPoint.

I also find myself taking a lot of photos and videos. Sometimes, the same pictures over again but with different lighting, settings, and angle. Well, you do try to get the best the camera can produce. That's why I'm too lazy to edit. But, later on, I might edit one or two for social media.

I find myself re-using some of the photos for different purposes. The good thing is that it's all mine and I don't have to worry about the copyrights issue. But, I actually encounter one with my moon videos. Somebody or company claiming my videos as theirs. Maybe, it's a coincidence they look the same.

Nikon Coolpix P950 - A Bird Building A Nest In Front Of My Door


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!

I've been wanting to take pictures and videos of birds with my new Nikon Coolpix P950 but I still haven't plan to go anywhere yet. There are several good places I can go to, but I'm not really familiar with those places. Well, maybe in the near future.

Meanwhile, what luck! There's actually a bird building a nest right outside my door. I was actually wondering yesterday about where the bird's noises were coming from. I thought they were from the roof. Turn out, it's just outside my door and I didn't even notice it.



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

When I opened my door this morning, I saw all these little woods on my welcome mat. I thought somebody was sending voodoo stuff to me. Lol. I look up and there's the little birds' nest. Probably blown away by the wind.

I went inside and waited for a while. The bird saw me standing at the door and it was a little apprehensive at first. I stay quiet and it became brave and start building up to its nest again. I decided to get my camera and my tripod.

I couldn't use the tripod as it was too near my door and the gate is blocking the view. Of course, I couldn't stay too near the door or the bird won't come. I opened the gate and just waited for it to come back every 15 to 20 mins with new materials for its nest.

I really had to be patient because I couldn't just sit there and wait for it to come. I took the time in between to test the zoom and settings. I decided to try the bird set as I am taking pics and videos of a bird. The grey moody weather doesn't help. It's been raining the past few days.



Nikon COOLPIX P950 Digital Camera 26532 w/ 83x Optical Zoom Lens and SanDisk 128GB Memory Card and 3 Pcs Multi-Coated Glass Filter Kit & Camera Case and ZeeTech Accessory (Black) (Basic Bundle)

I managed to get 2 or 3 videos and a couple of pics. As I've said, the bird doesn't stay long. It'll come, put in the little woods that it could find, and fly away. It also doesn't stay still waiting for you to take pictures of it.  I actually wondered if this is how the professionals actually have to go through.

It's really not easy to get that perfect shot. I was either sitting or standing near the door waiting for the bird to come back. I felt as if I'm a baby bird waiting for mommy to bring me worms for breakfast or lunch. Yucks!

I just went to check on the bird's nest and there are more bits and pieces of wood and other stuff outside my door. I didn't know the wind outside my house was that strong. It was raining earlier so, might have made it worse.

No sign of the bird either. I'll have to wait and see if it'll continue building its nest in front of my door. You have to give credit to them for their perseverance. They're willing to work hard to build a nest for their newborn. Every parent (with some acceptance), humans or non-humans would do anything for their children.

It's part of our nature. Frankly, I'm not a parent, so I wouldn't know. But, it's just basic instincts. Animals don't have the brain capacity like us humans. We don't merely rely on instincts. We have brains, free will, and common sense (apparently some don't?).

Anyway, one day, I might see a baby bird outside my door and me and my P950 are ready!
