    For zoom alone Clive it opens up so many possibilities but there are many other features on the 510 that make this a camera worth having. A blog review: http://www.photographyblog.com/reviews/nikon_coolpix_p510_review/...

    Yep...that's the one Clive. I have tried it a few times and it really is an excellent camera. I use a Sony HX100V which is pretty good, not quite the zoom range, but good enough for most situations and it also has a very good macro feature and once you have sussed out the auto feature on the...

    Cheers Clive. I'll have a go anyway. My wife has a 42x zoom on her Nikon so will probably take that instead.

    Typical Hawfinch! I spent many hours,and days, at the Silverdale (Woodwell Lane) site near Carnforth,Lancs,trying to spot Hawfinch.

    Been a few years since i have seen Hawfinch and would love to see them again but i have no transport. Is it possible to get off the train at either Cromford or Whatstandwell and walk to the location you have pointed out Clive? Or can you suggest any other way? Cheers.
