Took the kids for a trip to Chester Zoo and had a play with my new camera

Here are some of my favourites from the day

Comments Welcome

Chester has got to be one of the best zoos in the country ...fantastic place

Love the last one!

Last time we went, Little Stig was 'Ickle Stig and the bull elephant was on the horny side of life. What he did to the female elephant with his "self guiding" willy made our eyes water :eek:

I thought he had an Adoconda snake for a willy!!

Like the arangutang one.

Nice photos

What lens did you use for those?

All photo's taken with a Panasonic DMC-FZ7 using the camera straight out of the box with a UV filter on.

It was that time of the year, the Zebras, pig things & chimps were at it when we were there.

That damm Panasonic keeps popping up

I still have a few days to make my mind up but I'm seriously considering that Panasonic

it's a nice easy to use camera and it was a bargain too. Purchased from a member on here, I'm glad I bought it.

like the picture of the reticulated python

You've forgotten the Red Pandas...

I've just signed up to the adoption scheme for them

Funnily enough, that member took these pictures at the same Zoo, with the same Camera (PS glad you are liking it Matt and great pictures)

The red pandas are great - it's just that you nearly always end up breaking your neck trying to find them in the trees. Best option is to buy a postcard if you want to get a decent picture of one.

It served me well, and the lens is a good quality Leica. What swung me originally was a review in What Camera ages ago that rated it as better than some entry level DSLR's. I am loving my current Sony A350, but sometimes miss the Panasonic and it's light weight, battery life, quality and point and shooteability

I'm loving the camera, makes you feel like a real pro even though it works great even as a point and shoot.

I could not go out and get it today as I was too busy :(

Tomorrow maybe
