I put some sample photos (jpeg) of the different focal lengths in the video description.
That is fantastic! Thank you very much! I will check and compare them tomorrow on my pc monitor. This is exactly what i've been searching for! Subscribed!
@黃先伯 i agree, RX10M4 @600mm is about the same as P1000 @1000mm. I think the RX10M4 is close in capturing the same amount of details @600mm vs P1000 @2000mm, but lacks the amount of pixels to crop that far in.
Which one would you pick if you only could have one stills camera suited for difficult light? Jungle and nature photography.
You should try the stars and planets too on your tests
@@ElectromaticG5120 I would definitely pick the Sony RX10 IV. In my opinion the most convenient camera. But for low light I would choose a APS-C or Full Frame camera. Perhaps the Sony a7 III.
straight to the point, no unnecessary talking and annoying music. Sony is good for lowlight and Nikon for its amazing zoom. Thanks for the excellent video.
nikon has better natural image at night with no gimmicks,

I really liked this comparison. You let the cameras do the talking no pretense or bias introduced. I really thought it was great to do a side-by-side comparison because it was great to see competitors going at it and you also showcased some very good features of both systems. I am also now set 100% in the Nikon corner now. Keep up the good work/play.

Thank you 😊
Thank´s. You took your time to film, edit and post this amazing video. Both cameras have their up´s and down´s. You convinced me to go with the Nikon P1000. I´m just getting started with nature photography here in Spain so i guess i´ll have a good cheap start. Thank´s again.
Really great review with proof and action and comparing two great cameras - unlike all others that talk your ears off and no real data
Sony: Nice house and yard
Nikon: I enjoyed watching you cook and eat breakfast. Noticed you had bacon, eggs, toast, pancakes with a 12 ounce OJ. You didn't eat your fruit though.

Normally I don't like comparison videos. In this hypostyle. But I really enjoyed yours it did a very good job. I appreciate it thank you
Great comparison, many thanks.
The Zoom motor in the Nikon is really very loud, I can hear it loud and clear! Thank you for the video and your work
That zoom on the Nikon is simply amazing. I'd like to have both cameras, but if I had to pick one, I'd pick the Sony. That 1" sensor just gives you so much more versatility.
@Red Line better image quality, better dynamic range, better ISO performance and some better shallower DoF
The Sony just produces so much better images. I use the Nikon at work and have the Sony personally. I would love it if the Sony had a better Zoom but not at the cost of any of its other features.
The point of these cameras is the zoom! If you need high quality photos them both of these will disappoint since they’re not gonna be better than a decent cellphone camera. You’ll need a DSLR for image quality
@@henryforo3566 That is complete bullshit. I’m a working Pro and use FF for my daily work. I use 1“ cameras for all my travel stuff and also for work, after I saw how good the quality really is.
I tested the RX10IV some days ago and this camera has such a good lens, you wouldn’t belive it is even possible to build something like this. It’s sharp from wide to tele, it has a good micro contrast and a surprisingly good bokeh.
The ISO performance is far better than most people would think. At base ISO these files are better than mFT sensors and as we know have AI noisereduction in Lightroom, I don’t have to think about high ISOs. These 1“ sensors deliver. And if you think they’re not good, it’s probably YOU who is the bigger problem. But you’re talking DSLRs and cellphones, so you might live under a rock for the last 20 years.
Thanks for uploading, seems like a fair comparison. I recently got the Sony Rx 10, love it. Keep my Sony Hx400v as backup.
The Nikon's zoom is crazy and seems very clear.
It all depends on your needs and priorities. I love the squirrel shot, and if that was on the Nikon, I would be MORE than happy :). I have moved on from my previous 25x zoom camera, and the 65x zoom of the latest one often comes into it's own when birding. So yes, I am envious of the 125x zoom of the Nikon for my needs, as I am sometimes quite flat out on 65x to see the detail I need for a shot. Don't forget the weight of the Nikon though, no good if you would rather leave your heavy camera in the car than carry it everywhere.
Thanks for this awesome comparison 👌
Now that is what you call a test. Thank you. Very usefull.
How far can u zoom?
Nikon p1000: yes!
You put a lot of time into this. Thank you for that. I see the P1000 has a lot of color noise and not quite as good as the sony especially for night shots. Stabilization + Zoom better on Nikon.
Focus better on Sony. Still looking i guess. Wish I could have the best of both worlds. Liked.
The laws of physics do not allow that, sadly.
Get both, thats my plan.
This is call true comparison...
Thanks man keep doing great...
Great visual comparison!, thank you for the effort!....
Sony : "Vestas!"
Nikon : "No! That's Vestasr"

Nikkon P1000 is absolutely amazing in all aspects. Great video. Thanks a lot.
Blessed morning.. thank you for the photo / video review on this camera.
Guys
This video is demonstrating the "battle of superzoom" not the "battle of super quality".
So if he was comparing the quality he would've definitely used some other model of Nikon against Sony.
So this comparison is very clear and well defined.
And yes if some can compromise with quality for zooming power then the choice is Nikon and if we prefer quality over zooming power the there are many other cameras for beautiful results.
Thanks for this nice video.
Thanks
Thanks for this review it's exactly what I've been looking for. I'm still torn between which one I prefer. The photographer in me prefers the Sony because of the sensor and faster lens but that zoom on the Nikon opens up a whole new level of fun!
Do I really need a 3000x zoom "No"
Do I want a 3000x zoom "Yes!"
The image purist in me still says Sony though!
I have the sony and love it. You can do allot more with the raw files and the lens is sharper. The nikon has allot of novelty and little flexibility in post. If you do not edit your photos after you shoot them and don't crop images allot the nikon would be the winner. If you don't mind editing and want the sharpest images go with the sony.
Just ordered the Sony! ;-)
Calling a 125x zoom, a 3000x zoom is going too far...
@@michaels3003 Its 3000 equivelent 35mm focal length, not 3000x
@@michaels3003 ..considering it is neither a 125x zoom nor a 3000x zoom -fair point. I estimate its about a 55x zoom over the normal human eye.
Amazing low light potential from Sony. Though I am Nikon fan
Nikon!
Thank you for taking the time to show us this comparison. Very interesting - wow!...low light on the Sony is incrdible. I have an a6300 and this (initially) looks even better at low light.
Thanks.
Thanks for the hard work
Thank you! Very useful video and fantastic cameras!
I love bridge cameras. I have a Sony hx-350, good quality and great zoom. A week ago I bought the mirrorless Fujifilm X-S10, great quality... ok, but my love goes to zoom cameras! Maybe someday I'll bought the RX10 (if I have enough money)
At ISO 12800 the photo quality is still considered high by Sony. If only we could have both quality and zoom together, that would be a super awesome camera.
If you need the same zoom on a 1 inch sensor, the barrel will extend to 1m.
I got the p1000 six months ago. It's really amazing! very nice video!
Thank you for your video and your time..
I hope to be owning one of each of these soon (upgrading from a RX 10 MK2) and a GH5s and a GH5.. (doing some upgrading) Love how the SONY is way above the P1000 in low light quality. But the ZOOM cannot be beat. And I wanna use that for Broll shots for some shoots. will be fun..
Are you using the old ones? hahahahahahahahahahah
So the Sony is good for actually taking pictures, and the Nikon is a great stalker camera
The Nikon is mainly a birding camera, the Sony for other bigger wildlife and landscape. The Nikon sensor is made by Sony.
@@L.V-Rider "The Nikon sensor is made by Sony" nope. Nikon design all of their sensors.
Yes, Nikon design some of their own sensors, but, sorry to burst your bubble. There is a difference between "design" and "make" (manufacture). Sony do manufacture sensors for Nikon and other well known brands. Do some searching before arguing.
This is a older list with some Nikon cameras sensor listed, not all and not the "P" range. But you can think that if Nikon is manufacturing so little of their own sensors, that many of the others not listed is manufactured elsewhere. The P900 sensor is manufactured by Sony and the P1000 is using the same sensor.

Thank you so much. Useful video.
P1000: much higher zoom.
RX10 IV: much bigger sensor, higher resolution, faster and better focus, much better high ISO and low light capability, much better microphone.
Do you have test Sony RX10 ii and RX10 IV? I wanna buy a camera, but if it's true, great zoom is Nice, I think x8 zoom+ND filters+2.8 constant aperture it's better than x25 zoom+2.4-4 (for me at least), but Image Quality it's Even most important over all other Things ¿There ate diference between these 2 camperas?
@@hablemosde1950
I haven't tested it myself. actually I don't like this type of cameras. I'm a big fan of prime lenses and medium format cameras. however, if you are interested to these cameras, I recommand RX10 IV.
Bigger sensor is generally better. RX10 IV has a 1inch sensor while P1000 has a 1/2.3". the RX10 IV sensor is almost 4 times bigger.
RX10 IV has many other advantages:
20 MP vs 16 MP - higher resolution and bigger pixels
Faster and better focus - great focus while zooming
Much better high ISO and low light capability - P1000 photos are useless since ISO 3200 but even in ISO 12800, RX10 photos are still good!
Much better microphone - P1000's microphone is garbage
8 times faster shutter speed - 1/32000s vs 1/4000s
You can shoot 24 fps JPEGs up to 249 exposures. P1000 can shoot only 7fps
Both cameras are capable to recording 4K 30fps Videos but RX10 IV can record Full HD up to 1000 fps!!!
Since I've worked with both ZEISS and Nikon lenses, I can tell you RX10 IV's lens is higher end.
Now choose one, more zoom or more capabilities and higher quality.
@@Masoud_Amiri the question was asked between the rx 10 ii and the rx 10 iv.
This film actually compared apples to apples. It was very well done.
❤️
for zoom, Nikon wins hands down... for clarity at low lite Sony best by far... both are brill but I would choose the Nikon over the Sony... great video!
Thank you very much 💝 its so so perfect ❤️❤️❤️ very nice video.
Great and informative video. It is quite clear that the Nikon P1000 owns the zoom master championship. The Sony is the overall better camera if one is looking for the 'Jack of all trades' bridge camera. If one is seriously looking for telephoto prowess and power, go with the Nikon P1000. Other than that, outside of of an advanced/pro DSLR, go with the Sony RX10 IV.
Teleskope better for zoom
Sony said “Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss, you'll land among the stars.” lol
Thx for comparing. I was looking about ur video
Super 8 vs 35mm ...
Watched the 2nd time on a 1080 40" screen.
The old "high" speed film stock (even more so pushed) had visible grain, now we have "noise" and sensor size matters. Side by side, we can see how much it matters. Pick the right tool for the job. Thank you for showing, and not "telling".
Yeaaa. Super test . THX.Nikon super. zoom bomb.
I really enjoyed this video. As someone else said, you actually get to the point of why we came here. Don't need the endless talk, sponsored links etc etc.
Would you recommend a camera with around 30x zoom at half the price of these?
this is it. My next trip...Thanks for your Video. 100 percent convincing ....
Top video mate
You are a no nonsense guy
Keep this attitude 👍
I wanted to buy a bridge camera and waited over a year for the P1000 to come out. I checked it out, didn't like the build quality. Past the zooming abilities, it was no comparison to the Sony RX10 IV. I bought the Sony, but I have to admit that P1000 zoom is impressive, spies & PI's should love it.
Agreed but for spy project always remember - no CIA agent using Nikon Coolpix P1000 for espionage projects should forget to mount it on a tripod. Otherwise it will be impossible to hold it for longer than 7 to 9 minutes and then you have to wait for a few hours for your hands to rest. Excellent camera!
The US governement must have sonething more advanced,i mean they are putting 700 billion in the army
Gracias por la demostracion
Very nice. Loved it.
lumix fz1000 ii has more zoom then the panasonic fz250?
I own both cameras. They both are great for what they are designed to do. The zoom range on the Nikon wins. But at this present time there is no camera anywhere that is as versatile and capable as the Sony RX10 IV. And there are only a handful of cameras that can match the lightning fast focus of the RX10 IV camera.
The Sony camera is amazing, and most people don’t even know that these two cameras are using a leaf shutter. With respect to speedlights, the leaf shutter destroys all interchangeable lens cameras that use focal plane shutters because the flash can be synced to any shutter speed the photographer needs without flash sync restrictions.
Can you use one of the lens adjustable rings to zoom the lens as well? Or only the zoom knob? I have several camera gear. But still own an older Fuji X-S1 24-624mm. That lens has full manual zoom and works so fine. Although the camera is outdated in many aspects nowadays. But still a great camera to have always in your car orzo. The RX10IV is tempting for shooting sailing yachts competition when on a RIB. No need to chance lenses and shooting is during daylight most of the time.
@@D Larson Thanks!
Great info
Absolutely! Sony won!
Hi! How is RX 10 III ?
Thank you for sharing!!!!
Cool video thanks for sharing
The low light superiority of the Sony is huge better than the Nikon, but for over all super zoom to capture close up detailed far away images I believe the Nikon wins hands down!! If your going for all around average good camera that does everything well and need better image stabilization and super fast auto focus and clean night shots and clean day shots then it's hands down the Sony RX10 IV, the Nikon for it's price cheaper than Sony and being a bridge camera for now does the best job for getting clean shots of wildlife being well lighted that is!! Photographers getting good shots having a tripod is advisable P1000, it's auto focus struggles P1000, so have to have a tripod for better shots! The only other cameras for super close wildlife action shots far away super super clean are going to be DSLR's like a Nikon D500 and thats getting into $2000 and $3000 dollar price range!!!
This is what my eyes would react if seeing money lying down on the street
Amazing video 👍
Nicely presented, thanks
Thank you for the review. Awesome zoom from Nikon but bad quality for indoor and night time use. I wish they at least use a better sensor. Doesn't have to be like RXIV sensor but better than the old useless sensor.
by "better" you mean bigger. all small sensor cameras, like the one you find in the p1000, will struggle in low light situations. the biggest selling point of the Nikon is the amount of range you get in a comparatively portable and inexpensive package (when compared to a dlsr w/ a bulky telephoto lens or the Sony which costs twice as much). so if you shoot mostly during daytime and looking for a relatively portable camera with unbeatable zoom, then P1000 is pretty much the only option today that will meet that requirement. for low light you'd want a true dslr (crop) with a decent lens or two, it will easily outperform the RX10. its 'range' vs an average 'do it all' cam comparison, really.
@@Innocence44 I used to have p900 which I was planning to use for an annual convention but it doesn't work that good for that situation. In the end I was using Canon SX40 HS which has better capture (still having it) even when I was using the same range of zoom. Yes, during daytime outdoor, wildlife etc.. it is pretty good. While not carry my main camera now I am using the portable zoom from panasonic ZS70. Obviously not a good range like either p900 or SX40HS but the quality is pretty good during the indoor shot at 24mm with the flash. Using it for Dragoncon. Sensor could be the same but the lightness and size is what I like.
Nikon P2000: finally we can see the guy is eating his cookie and crumbles on the floor.

In my humble opinion......the Nikon is better.......The Sony is accurate.......thanks for sharing...
The noise reduction on the sony is pretty damn good.
Once you mount your 🎤 with a dead cat you really cannot hear the Nikon p1000 zooming out
@@robertkelsey812 I think he means the ISO noise reduction.
Real test great work👍
thank you! it was useful for me.
This was a pretty good comparison video and it confirmed my assumption that the Nikon has an impressive amount of zoom, but the Sony has the better image quality. For a fair test I would have liked to see you zooming in to the same amount when comparing stabilization, rather than zooming in to the most that the Nikon can do, past the range of the Sony
For a fair test you should compare stills in all the focal range of the two cameras even if that means that after the 600mm you have to start cropping. I guess that till 600mm because of the bigger sensor Sony wins and from there till 3000mm the P1000 has better image quality. Because of the cropping. That is the big advantage for me of the P1000. It gives you so much freedom! Decent photos in the range that most cameras operates and much better in bigger focal lengths! The only restrictions it has is in dark places and night wildlife photography. But in every other sector it covers you very well.
real world testing should not be done on a tripod. hand held would be better as superzooms are only as useful as their stabilisation. also you should compare stills.
the quality of RX wins for me despite abit bigger zoom by p1K the 1 inch sensor is superb
Amazing details ....great !!!
Nice comparasin video my favorite Nikon p1000 👌
It is great that you zoomed the Nikon P1000 up to 3000mm (125x), but you should also have zoomed the camera to its equivalent of the Sony so that we can see how both cameras perform at their equivalent zoom settings in terms of image quality and image stabilization. Take, for example, the Windmill blades, was it necessary to have only zoomed up to the tip or base of the blade with the Nikon? Why not back up the zoom a little bit so as to see how the Nikon compared with the Sony. The further out you go or the greater you zoom in on an object while hand holding the camera, the more movement you will get.
@John Nelson indeed
When looks into zoom character, people always interested in zoom.
To value on picture quality , one might take it in other shots feature.
yeah but the test does show the usefulness or not of OIS ar ultradistance
Naa this test is just for the Zoom comparison mainly. Showing how much closer you can get with the Nikon. A full camera test would probably show the Sony better with video and the Nikon better with stills. That's been my experience anyway.
Bsr je suis besoin de Nikon p1000 vs Sony rx IV prix en cefa
Pela comparação nos testes, me parece que a Nikon leva uma ligeira vantagem em sua concorrente mais direta.
Só uma ligeira vantagem?! Na minha percepção foi bem superior.
Verdade 🙏😂
A Sony foi espancada pela nikon coolpix P1000 acabei de comprar uma, é impressionante to gostando demais.
Great work
Very thorough.
My first of super zoom cameras was a Panasonic FZ200 with a 1/2.3 inch sensor and I must say super sharp at 600 mm the only problem was excellent photography AS LONG THERE WAS GOOD LIGHT. Today I have a Sony RX10 III and not to mention I had the RX10 II before and now the RX10 IV ( I can't catch up ) there will be newer model coming out just about every week. Bigger sensor is better
Muito bom, a P1000 com a ISO 12800 seria perfeita.
