I am pretty much sold on this camera, but was hoping you could answer some questions:  What SD card do you use?  Are you able to take almost dark photos with 42X magnification? I am finally upgrading from my 35mm, and my primary use would be wildlife photography. Appreciate your input.

Yes it will take pictures with low light, but I highly recommend a tripod otherwise they tend to come out blurry.  I will post pics tonight of critters right at last light.  I will also post random photos that I have taken just playing around with different features. 

It also has a flash for closer night shots. 

I use the 16 gb sandisk that came with my camera.  It was a bundle from costco.   

I am in love with the camera for wildlife viewing.  It gives you a super zoom without having to buy a telephoto for a DSLR camaera.  It is a fraction of the price too which is awesome.  :tup:

All these pics were taken in the last 30 minutes of light.  The two point that is pretty dark was taken in literally the last minute of light and it was 50-60 yards away and moving.  Really not to bad a pic for the conditions.

Here are a couple sunset pics and one color metering picture.  I think the color metering is amazing, I can't wait for summer to try this feature outside with some sunflower fields. 

Also thought the picture with the deer was awesome.  I like the way it captured the water droplets at the bottom.
