Nice camera that, it has an excellent optical zoom on it as well, equivalent to 25 - 525mm in 35mm world.
We shall be expecting some even better SOTD pictures now

That's a good price, they've come down a bit since they were launched.
You should be able to get some cracking shots with that. Try and keep the ISO no higher than 400, or you might start seeing some noise on the images. It probably has Auto ISO but you can normally limit it somewhere in the settings.

I'll try that out tomorrow I see what your saying about the zoom impressive camera for that money. I seem to have pushed the poor iPhone to its max and its starting to get out of its depth for the pictures I want. Should be fun tomorrow to see what I can produce.

Usually overlooked, but one of the most important accessories to have with a camera.
My camera is mounted on either a tripod or monopod for about 95% of its use.

At 525mm you'll probably need the tripod! Good choice of camera. Can't go wrong with Nikon or Canon.

I'm really pleased with it, the tripod is a must as you are steady and makes shooting a lot easer,my son wanted a photo of him with pooh bear ( a school thing, pooh bear dairy,they get the bear over the weekend and write what they did with it,and a photo with the bear) so muggins got the job of photographer, took the lad out on location in the park took the shot off to boots to get a print 45 mins in total, Mrs J looked at the photo kissed me and stated when we go on holiday guess what your job is? :dodgy: no rest for the wicked.
