A walk a long the Trans Canada trail in Burnaby B.C. gave some interesting industrial views.\u00a0 I shot these all with the Nikon P7000 which is much improved in operation since the latest firmware update (Version 1.2).\u00a0 One of the problems addressed by this update was the focus system.\u00a0\u00a0It is the\u00a0one area that really caused me issues\u00a0particularly focus at the long end of the zoom. Previously it often failed to lock focus despite having a good contrasty subject and lots of light.\u00a0 Now the camera focuses without problem at all focal lengths.\u00a0Also improved is it’s ability to focus in low light, and the overall speed of focus. It really can’t be over stated this is a major update that anyone with a P7000 should consider doing.\u00a0The P7000 has become my default carry everywhere camera with it’s very effective\u00a06.0 to 42.6mm\u00a0\u00a0(28-200 equivalent) zoom.\u00a0 The P7100 that replaced it uses the same lens and sensor so while it may have improved operation the final result will be the same, for this reason the P7000 is an excellent deal while they are still available and I would buy another one despite all the other cameras competing in this class.<\/p>\n
