- A: AnswerYou do need to buy a memory card. It comes with a battery that you charge while it’s in the camera. I bought a stand alone charger that came with 2 batteries. When the one in the camera got low I could swap it out The Nikon 950 is an incredible camera that can complete with the cameras you see out there with the long bulky telephoto lens

- A: AnswerLight is everything. With good light the camera can freeze the wings of a hummingbird. Indoor the video camera is best at low light in an arena. I have nice videos of granddaughter figure skating. Indoor low light use the auto setting to capture impressive images. The bird setting is good for just about anything. I use it most often, 90% of the time.

- A: AnswerNo this is not a camera lens that could be changed out . This is a coolpix camera. I suggest getting a camera that actually has changeable lenses. Any coolpix do not have change out lenses. They have their own automatic settings within the camera.
Answered by Lanialovephotography
- A: AnswerThere is a button on the top right next to MF which changes from monitor to viewfinder. Also in the menu can stop viewfinder from automatically going on when you put your eye next to it. vIEWFINDER HAS MUCH BETTER RESOLUTION THAN MOIITOR, BUT HARDER TO FIND BIRDS IN IT, WHICH IS WHAT i USE IT FOR

Awesome!
I bought this camera mostly for videoing wildlife. The zoom ability is awesome! Loving it so far. There are other cameras that have a little better clarity but they’re a lot more $. For the price I’m really happy with this!

A telephoto jewel
This is an awesome camera. It’s not considered lightweight, but considering what you can do with this unit it’s worth the trade off. A tripod is definitely worth the investment.

Nice upgrade from the P900...
This was a well-needed upgrade from the Nikon P900 and much more compact than the bulky P1000. Its kind of a combination of both, hence the P950 label. The viewfinder is a nice update. Much easier to see your photos before and after the shot. It also shoots in RAW format, and you have quick access to exposure compensation with a new dial on the left side of the camera. The "moon mode" is a nice option for those moon shots. It also shoots in 4K @ 30fps or 1080 @ 60 video. I wish it was weather and dust proof, as it's a great hiking camera being somewhat light and compact for a 2000mm zoom. The image stabilization is very impressive. A great asset when you're at 2000mm zoom. I'd say @ $799, it's a lot of bang for the buck. I wish it had a larger sensor, and maybe 20MP over 16MP, but from a value standpoint, Nikon did well. Five stars to both BestBuy (Chapel Hill Store) and Nikon.
