Nikon Coolpix P100 super zoom camera: up close photos!

The Nikon Coolpix P100 was one of a batch of impressive bridge cameras with immense optical zoom lenses unveiled last month, and now it’s finally landed on UK shores. We grabbed one for a hands-on, pronto, so read on for all the photos.

If you’re looking to make a step up from a compact camera, but don’t fancy the cost or hassle of lugging different lenses around, the 10.3 megapixel Nikon Coolpix P100 might just be what the doctor ordered. The tilting screen with live view will have newbies framing shots like a pro, and it even shoots full HD video.

But there’s no ignoring that zoom on the Nikon Coolpix P100. At 26x, it’ll let you snatch shots from an absurd distance. We couldn’t test the resulting image quality here at the Focus On Imaging show in Birmingham sadly, but we’ll testify to the Nikon Coolpix P100′s solid build and impressive array of functions for something so cheap.

Take a look at the Nikon Coolpix P100 up close in our gallery, and if you like what you see, you’ll be able to grab one of your very own later this month when the Nikon Coolpix P100 ships.

    I really love Nikon P100. In my first test last night after it arrived, I was blown away by the difference. Close shots of a ladybug on the orange tree v. zooming in on lamp posts across the street – everything was clear. I took a photo of my old car and it looked like a dealership photo. As an aside, I have no idea how the camera made the dirty car clean. I think I’ve made a right decision when I bought Nikon P100.
