I know the question is not well posed, but I was thinking for shooting the moon, distant wildlife, and macro photography can I compare the following setups?

  1. Nikon D810 + 70-200mm f/4G VR
  2. Nikon CoolPix P1000

You can't compare these cameras so sample, because:

  • first have maximum focal length of 200mm, seconds - 3000mm which mean you can fill the frame with much more distant objects (with the second)
  • Because of above you may have problem handheld steady the second camera for long focal lengths. But it may win when talk about the Moon
  • first camera have much bigger sensor cells which mean in low light (usual situation with wildlife) will give you much less noise
  • first camera cost around 2000$, second ~1000$
  • none of them (as described) is good for macro photos
