I just submitted to return the defective P900 to Amazon for a replacement. Not to be commercial but this is what's so good about buying stuff like this from Amazon. They are already preparing to ship a replacement and will ship as soon as it's available if they have no stock now. They are not waiting for the returned unit to ship the new unit.
In terms of returning it, they emailed me a shipping label. All I have to do re-box the camera, stick the label on and take it to the UPS store down at the corner. No cost to me. I have until May 26 to drop it off. So I have a couple of weeks still to play with the menus and get to understand the camera better even though the photos will still not be good. I would like to play with features like Auto-zoom extend and zoom memory for the fast set-up while I am waiting for the replacement.
And of course I will practice the best way to hold it steady so the image doesn't slide off the field as I click the shutter as per the comments above.
EDIT: Amazon just emailed me to let me know that they can't send a replacement right away because they are out of stock (which I knew) They offered me a refund instead. I said I would wait for stocks to come in. But that is good customer service.
