Hi Sabya and Roopak, thanks for the review . I am grappling with the issue that the shutter speed in P mode is very slow in this camera, not sure why. For the same combo of Aperture, ISO and focal lenght, Nikon P 510 would have shot with around 1/500 of shutter speed where as this camera is shooting with less than 1/100.
yes I had a hellof a trip and will most likely add it on to my regular jaunts, the distance is at the strike level with decent roads from Hyd. Except for bears I managed decent images of all. will be posting them here, after all this forum is one of main motivation factors for my photography.
