Pros:in optimal light conditions the super zoom works quite well; with little light better to leave it alone.
Cons:in almost all situations that do not require a large magnification, the Nikon A1000 is largely outclassed by a good smartphone. In the test photos I took it is evident the lack of sharpening (contrast and definition). If you exceed 100 ISO the photos are usually painful.
Opinion:Although the A1000 looks good aesthetically, it has serious carburetion holes. To be just decent, the photos must be retouched with a separate program working on the levels of contrast, saturation, sharpness. There are no settings in the menu (as in Nikon SLRs also cheap) that allow you to define the shooting parameters in advance. Especially the sharpness leaves something to be desired but in a broad sense everything is low-level.
Pros:Optical zoom. USB charging. Touch display. Adjustable screen. Portability. Battery life. Well built. Robust. Detailed images if illuminated.
Cons:Sensor. Dark lens. Poor image processor. Poor menu. Stabilizer in low light conditions. Noise over 800
Opinion:Socket to stay light in walks or excursions and trips, Found at a used price and well-maintained, plus 2-battery and SD case from 64 ... and I convinced myself to take it. At first glance I was disappointed. Considering that I also Nikon p950 and mounts the same sensor and churns out really interesting images, I thought that this A1000 Would have been similar... But no... Especially difficult to take good photos because of the diasly lit lens. The subject must be illuminated well very well... If illuminated well the pictures are really detailed. Otherwise we might as well use the smartphone, nowadays you can achieve impressive results with a smartphone. This A1000 can only be saved for optical zoom and nothing else (24-840). Poor management menu. Filter effects very nice but with limited functions. Touch focus function available only in P A S M mode but little changes because the photo is almost all in focus if you do not use a long focal length. Impossible to use it with indoor lighting are better with mobile phone. I found myself several times trying to shoot but I lost precious seconds ... The software is very slow. Slow focus only indoors or with extended zoom in outside. In short... for a device released in 2019 proposed at € 450 new it seems to me a mockery. For me all in all better to use a recent smartphone instead of the A1000. For me it is Rejected. I will resell it.
Pros:Portability of course, large focal range 24-84o (the 28 indicated in the data sheet above is wrong) and the lens seems to me of quality at all focal lengths, discreet autofocus. Excellent articulated screen with touch functions. Everything you need is there and everything is in your pocket!
Cons:The sensor of this small size has its limitations, of course. The viewfinder is also very small. I find it dramatically complicated to manage manual focus but it can also be a limitation of mine that I am not familiar with focus peaking and attached procedures.
Opinion:I bought it for a month and I always carry it with me when I want to travel lightly, especially when I go out with the mountain bike. The machine works very well but as already mentioned I quarrel with the manual focus: I will have to study it better. I posted the photo of the Moon so you can realize how it makes it at the maximum focal ... and to me it seems excellent. Aesthetically not beautiful but not so ugly (mine is black and seems better than bi-color), I am satisfied with the purchase and I would also recommend it for those who want to travel ultralight without "reducing" to using the smartphone!
