Thank you my friend and I was well rewarded with my efforts to get action shots, as the birds all showed up.

Yes great timing (and maybe even better patience too..lol.🤣..)

I'm still not 100% sure what camera I'm going to get in the end, (maybe the Nikon p950 as the Canon 70 doesn't have bulb mode in manual but the Nikon does...) but I have soooo many plans for it when I do and I just can't wait to be able to get similar shots as you do!

Thanks for the Veggo pizza too! 😋

Hahaha, waiting has never disturbed me my friend.

Well I like the way that you prepare for a new camera and my only criteria was that I wnted a camera that was able to get a close big full moon shot. Thus far tt has done all of the things for me that I wanted to get.

Yes, I have 4 needs for my new camera- to do macro, astral, lightpainting and moon- anything that I have that zoom range in.

I did ask the local camera shop to check the canon 70 because I could not find one iota in on even their website about the features in manual mode, but the guys at the shop confirmed no bulb and very little functions in manual, whereas the Nikon can do it all.

Great, then it sounds like the Nikon is the ideal camera for you.

Yes but then so many people are telling me to go for the interchangeable lens bodies...

I will cross that bridge when it comes to it...

Whatever works for you is what you should seek.
The reason why I didn't want a camera with interchangeable lenses is that lenses are very expensive.
