Tedz have been hesitating with his brother Nikon 8.0....having tested both...The lens opening is bigger, the zooo is not cumportable and unstable you need a tripod; the use is more complicate ...So I really choose this one...You can compare in my link above the difference. Gun say she need a cam for his pocket jeans. We have Tedz and Me not this problem...we are Black Kangaroo. :-)))))) What you need if you use it for reproduction the size in the best quality is : 3264x2428 and over 1.46 Mo...is a lot of ram. If you want fully appreciate the 8000Mp.
