So, I am still kind of looking for a cheap camera that I can take decent photos with when I go spotting. Since I do not do this often, I cannot afford to spend a lot of money (and bring all that stuff with me - love to travel light). Amazon has this one for $244 now so I am thinking about taking the plunge.
I really do not know what 24x zoom means. As a reference point, would I be able to get some decent shots from the mounds? From Rockaway blvd beach spot? Last time I used my 3x digital elf and got ok shots from the mounds but the 31L departures were just dark spots shooting from the beach.
I guess what I would like to do is be able to zoom in so that the plane takes up the entire picture when shooting. I think 24x would be enough to do that from the mounds, but what kind of zoom do you guys use when shooting from the beach?
Thanks,
Dima
