    Sorry to jump on your post @Happy but I am too looking at purchasing a decent camera for filming a SI trip. What are people's thoughts on this ? PowerShot SX60 HS Canon New Zealand at $600 i didnt think it was too badly placed, just wondering what sort of distance I would be able to get out of it to still see an animal

    Cheers

    You know, if you need 100 rounds to kill a deer, maybe hunting isn't your sport.

    Approx 500 metres away on full optical zoom with an SX50 (so 50x zoom)

    Second image is from the same spot, just ramped up into digital zoom, approx 200x I think. (video footage was slightly less grainy, photo was just taken freehand so a little shaky)


    Can probably dig up a few more photos if you liked?

    I'm using a fuji HS50 EXR , great zoom , i chose the manual zoom feature to save on batteries in Fiordland , My mates 60x will eat a battery every weekend with constant zoom and video work , i can go three weekends without changing battery.
