Has anybody tried to take a Mega Zoom camera into a stadium concert? The Nikon Coolpix P1000 (125x optical zoom) and the P900 (83x optical zoom) are both bridge cameras, with non-removeable lenses.
While the optical zoom powers are impressive, they are still laughably useless from the upper deck at the far end of a football stadium. I've seen some stadium policies limit the length of the lens extension, but how strict are they enforcing it? There are people in the Pits shooting HD video with cameras that have 30x-40x optical zoom lenses.
The last time I was at the far end of a stadium for a Stones concert, I used big binoculars to watch the video screen. One would think any bridge camera should be within reason.
