Hawk! I spun, changing modes from Landscape to my custom bird and wildlife mode on the camera&#8217;s control dial as I moved, and got off two shots before the bird moved on. This shot, and one showing the birds tail-feathers as it left the frame. \ud83d\ude42 That is the wonder of today&#8217;s superzoom cameras. From 24mm wide angle scenic to 2000mm super-telephoto bird shot in less than a second. And a camera like the Nikon P900 does both well. That is way they are so much fun!<\/p>\n<p>P900 in custom bird and wildlife mode (full zoom, 2000mm equivalent field of view, standard manual spot auto focus, standard Program with -1\/3 EV exposure compensation, etc.). 1\/125th @ ISO 400 @ f6.5.
