Besides the Nikon P950's long reach, it can also do some close up work. (BTW the spider won) Spider vs Bee.jpg

Holy smokes! Excellent. And you were only @ 33mm "eq" (i.e., 5.9mm)... not even CLOSE to many of the pictures you post @ 357/2000. Did you need to employ a macro mode for close focusing, or can you focus even closer? That would also be fun to see. A very versatile camera. Really nice. And you were there at the right moment, too. I really enjoyed shooting with the FZ30 (way back in the day)... and it was only 35-420.
 
Thanks! Yes, I put it into macro mode where you can get so close that the lens almost touches the subject. In this case I was in the shrubbery surrounded by buzzing bees so I couldn't get as close as I would have liked.
