The Canon Powershot is a great digital camera.
Yeah, I saw good reviews for that one. I picked a Nikon Coolpix, it was recommended for wildlife photography. I took some great shots yesterday.
Does your Nikon have the 83x optical zoom lens?
It does! It's brilliant for night sky photography too, I love it. Do you take many wildlife shots with your Powershot?
Yes. The Canon Powershot only has a 40x zoom so it is not as good as the Nikon but still good for taking wildlife photos. 
Yes, 40x means you can still keep your distance from wildlife and not scare them. I'm experimenting with video functions too, although I'm an old-fashioned photographer at heart. 
The Powershot G7 X  Mark II Video Creator Kit can help you take impressive video that you can edit later. 
Thanks, I haven't heard of that. I will look into it. Which types of wildlife do you like best for photos? I'm doing a lot of birds at the moment.
I like to visit state parks and photograph bison. I need to make sure to keep a safe distance because they can charge you. 
That sounds awesome. I'm in the UK where we don't have any dangerous large mammals. I shoot a lot of insects, they’re so elegant and colourful close up.
