Was set to buy SX60HS, until I got myhands on P900
on October 19, 2016

Verified Purchase:Yes
While I spend an above average time in the outdoors (fishing, hunting, hiking, and biking), I’m definitely not a hard-core bird watcher. However, after being “buzzed” a number of times a few years back, while out turkey hunting (with my kids perhaps enjoying this spectacle a bit too much at my expense), I became very interested in learning more about the birds of prey in our area, an in being able to identify them. This inspired me recently to look into getting a new point & shoot camera. By now I had given away a 35mm SLR (before digital days), and an inexpensive digital p&s (in early digital days), and favoring the convenience of my iPhone camera.
After doing several weeks of research a few months back, I quickly moved up the chain of less expensive p&s choices and landed on the Canon SX60HS. Nearly all of the reviews that I read picked this camera over other offerings including Nikon’s P610 and the P900. However, a couple reviews got me to at least “think” about these two Nikon models. (Note: at the time the P610 was not easy to find and was scheduled to be replace by the B700.)
Before making a final decision I wanted to “feel and touch” these cameras, so I located a nearby Best Buy that had the SX60HS in stock and a few other cameras included in the reviews I read. One of the other cameras was the P900. I picked up the SX60HS first, and fiddled with it for several minutes in the store. Then I picked up the P900. I was immediately impressed with its feel and ease of focusing in particular compared to the SX60HS. While the reviews had me convinced before coming into the store that I was here to purchase the SX60HS, I found myself unable to deny the difference in feel and ease I was experiencing “hands-on” at that moment with the P900. I spent the next hour or so going back and forth with these two cameras there in the store, fiddling with the controls, settings, focusing on things near and far, as my wife and the salesperson patiently allowed me to compare these two cameras.
Before purchasing the P900 I asked the Best Buy salesperson if I could bring it back if I wasn’t happy with it. He reminded me of the return policy they offer saying, “we want you to be happy with your purchase too.” Since then, I’ve never once thought about returning this camera. Yes, it is a bigger camera than I ever thought I’d buy for my desired use in the outdoors. However, after trying it out first at our local zoo, and using it now several times out in the field, I have absolutely no regrets that I went with the P900. I’m truly thrilled by its zooming capability, which I can only describe as “insane” (unbelievable). Its feel and handling, the simplicity of accessing and using its essential basic features, and the ease of focusing continue to impress me every time I use it. And I look forward as well to learning about its advanced features now and “growing” into using this camera to more of its full potential.

iPad Air is 20 percent thinner1 and weighs just one pound, so it feels unbelievably light in your hand. It comes with a 9.7-inch Retina display, the A7 chip with M7 motion coprocessor, ultrafast wireless, powerful apps, and up to 10 hours of battery life.2 And over 475,000 apps in the App Store are just a tap away.3

We bought one Apple TV before this new one came out. We liked it and decided to get a second one for our other TV. Decided to wait until the new one came out. The new remote is awesome and makes it really easy to navigate.

Polarizer
Can I put a circular polarizer on this camera? Would this be a good thing to do?
I was able to purchase a UV filter for my P900, doing so mainly to protect the lens. I saw a polarizer available as well in the same size. Would it be a good thing to do? As I fisherman who uses polarized sunglasses, I'd say "yes" especially if taking pictures near the water. I hope that helps.

Can you use a remote attachment to snap your photo.
I used the mobile (iPhone) application available for the P900 and was able to remotely snap a picture. That is, using my iPhone as remote control to snap a picture.
