Nikon Coolpix P100 Review

I was surprised to see Nikon back in the market with another superzoom announced exactly one year after the P90. At least until I realized that Sony has had a compact digital with a BSI sensor on the market since September 2009.
Pros:
  • Excellent AF speeds
  • Nice image quality
  • Good high ISO performance
Cons:
  • Delay going to video
  • In-camera battery charge

Nikon Coolpix P100 review

The Nikon P100 has much in common with the Fujifilm HS10. Both cameras have a 10-megapixel back-illuminated sensor, record 1080p HD video and lower-resolution slow-motion clips, and both come with a 3in articulated screen. The P100 costs considerably less than the HS10, though.

Excellent camera for the semi-pro

I was looking for a new bridge camera that would replace my Samsung nv7 ops which i traded in recently. I wanted a camera with full hd video and 10 mp camera. I found this camera very easy to use out of the box, i enjoy my photography and often use manual settings on my cameras when i can.
