Pretty good distance - Across the river and 3 blocks back - trying out the new camera - my old SX50's dials are worn out - this had very minimal cropping - mostly straightening the lines - if I'd had the tripod might have been even clearer.
Your 50 was a faithful companion for a good while, wasn't it? Did you proud, I reckon. Looks like this one will too. And its owner will get the best from it just as she did with the SX50.
