I have a Nikon P900, which I bought 4 years ago. I think it would be able to identify a license plate from 1km too. I took a photo of a couple at a restaurant ~3km away, and you could identify the gender and skin color.
The P900 has been succeeded by the P1000, which is the same focal length as this one.
- rahimnathwani 7y agoFrom the article: "Nikon’s P1000 has a 125x, 3000mm-equivalent zoom lens for example" This new camera has a 1000mm-equivalent lens.
- m463 7y agoI have the P1000, it is amaaaazing. The moon will completely fill the frame. You can look at airliners and read the tail numbers. At high zoom levels tracking the airliners is the hard part. You have to have a steady hand, although the image stabilization really helps. It also has a quick-zoom feature allowing you to zoom-out, locate and center something and snap back quickly. The article seems to indiate the p1000 doesn't have optical image stabilization, but it does. But the p1000 does NOT have ISO 819200 or heat haze correction. That sounds pretty cool. With the p1000 you will see atmospheric shimmering pretty often.
