I came quite close to buying a P1000 a while back but I decided that it was just too heavy for my needs.

For those who are interested, there's an informative review here...

Lovely shots Alby!

When my RX10 dies I'll move on to one of these I suspect - would love the reach for birding

I got this for the exact same reason Mike, I did own the p1000 for a while but it was so big I didn't enjoy walking around with it. The p950 is quite a bit smaller so I don't feel so embarrassed using it. I decided having the rx10 iv back I no longer wanted to use the om system gear so passed that on like I said I might.
I am easily impressed with the results from the Nikon p950 considering its tiny sensor. The cat was shot at 1200mm hand held btw
