Nikon Coolpix P100
Nikon has hit all the necessary specs with the P100, as it offers an impressive 26x optical zoom as well as Full HD movies. The specs don't always translate into decent image quality though, and with a bridge camera this is all the more important.
Pros:
- Huge zoom
- Sharp images
- Decent build quality
Cons:
- Unrealistic colour reproduction
- Sluggish start-up
- Underpowered image stabilisation

Nikon COOLPIX P100
A feature-packed model that's ideal for those looking to experiment with manual controls. The long zoom and lightweight body make it a great travel camera

Nikon enhanced its high-end ultrazoom with a new sensor, 1080p video, high-speed burst rate shooting and a higher-res articulated LCD, but image quality doesn't match the competition.

Nikon Coolpix P100 bridge camera
It's a Nikon; that name is certainly not tarnished with a reputation for cheap and nasty cameras. Even your friend who doesn't own a camera knows Nikons are a pure photographic mainstay.

Nikon Coolpix P100 Digital Camera Review
The Nikon Coolpix P100 is capable of doing some extraordinary things. It's chock-full of shooting options centered on a high-speed CMOS sensor married with a 26x megazoom lens. Things like high-speed photo and video shooting, fun modes and settings for near endless experimentation, and 1080p...

Nikon Coolpix P100 bridge camera
If shots are planned and you have some moments to get the camera in the right setting, excellent results can happen, but the lack of response from the zoom and the metering in some situations may frustrate some.

The Nikon Coolpix P100 ($399) is a super zoom digital camera that offers a monster lens, sensor-shift image stabilization, an articulating LCD, plenty of manual controls, and a Full HD (1080p) movie mode.

[REVIEW-NIKON COOLPIX P100]
This 10 megapixel camera has a 26–678mm (film equivalent) zoom and a low resolution electronic viewfinder. The 7.5cm LCD screen swings out in a horizontal plane so that the camera may be used at waist level or overhead. Image stabilisation is by sensor shift.
Pros:
- The image quality from the P100 is acceptable in the wide to medium section of the zoom, although a little soft and with warm white balance
- At the 678mm extreme image quality is poor.
Cons:
- The electronic viewfinder is of such low resolution that it is only for use in bright sunlight when the LCD turns black
- A 678mm lens cannot be used hand-held, even with the best electronic stabilisation
