Ciao Renato,

In the "Superzoom" / Bridge camera segment a Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX10 III (24-600mm FFequiv field of view) or if you want to spend much less a Panasonic Fz1000 (24-400mm FFequiv field of view, or upto 480mm in the MkII version) would be excellent for that use and they have very good 4K video. They both have 1 inch sensors. Of course you can go for longer focal lengths, at the expense of sensor size. You don't need 1000+mm equivalent FF focal length field of view at the expense of increased noise from the smaller sensors.

Go luck in your selection.

Best
JA

PS: the is also a new model, a Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX10 IV. Whatever you choose go to the dpreview website and compare the same image across your potential selection of cameras
