Nikon P950 Can See Saturn

Without any additional lenses, telescopes, filters or anything else, the Nikon P950 can see Saturn. And also Jupiter. The footage quality isn't all that great, but due to the distance these planets are supposedly away from the Earth, to pick these planets up at all is an amazing feat. If you want to try and record Saturn with your P950, the settings used for this capture were, and I quote but with fixed English: "Shutter speed mode, ISO 100, shutter speed 1/50-1/250 (dependent on situation), manual focus (It's important), stativ [I think that's the tripod]. These settings are for photo and video." The zoom on the P1000 also has the ability to see the same planets. See it in action.





#Astrophotography #Space -You can buy the P950 in used or refurbished condition.
