Thread: Camera.

I have the Canon SX 50. Really like it. Good zoom range and pretty good photos. Easy to use and not too heavy. Remember that when taking photos at long range the mirage/distortion caused the air can have a large effect on image quality rather than poor lenses.

Here are some links to videos taken with this camera

They aren't the best in low light, like right on dusk.

Remember that for longrange video/photo you need a really good tripod. Mine is not that great as can be seen when trying to keep the deer in the centre the tripod head when tightening up can move a bit.
