Nikon Coolpix P310
The Nikon Coolpix P310 is a fair bit cheaper than some similar cameras such as the Canon Powershot S100 . It lacks a couple of features compared to that camera such as GPS and a RAW mode. If those are not important to you then this camera becomes a lot more attractive.
Pros:
- Features
- compact size
- colours when flash is used
Cons:
- Picture quality not as good as other cameras in this category
- no RAW mode

Nikon Coolpix P310
The Nikon Coolpix P310 ($329.95 direct) may be billed as a point-and-shoot camera , but it's clearly designed with serious photographers in mind.

After a lot of deliberation between several makes and models I decided on the P310 because of its size, quality and HD video capabities (60FPS 720p).The camera proved to be a great little snappy with great quality filming but I quickly noticed the view screen sratching up and then dust particles
Pros:
- Great Features
- Great Picture Quality

Cons:
- Prone to dirt and dust

The Nikon Coolpix P310 is a hard camera to categorise. In terms of its size and operational ergonomics it's up against the Canon PowerShot S100, the Fujifilm X10, Olympus XZ-1 and Sony Cyber-shot RX100.

- Affordable price compared to other advanced compact camera
- Good build quality
- Fast
- f/1.8 lens (but only a wide angle
- PASM shooting modes
- Effective optical image stabilization

- Image quality drops off above ISO 400
- noise levels very high by ISO 3200

Am very disappointed in the Nikon P310's HD Video capabilities, and its only a average still-image picture taker as well. I'm going to return it today for a refund or credit. The 1080p and 720p HD video clips of moving objects like cars and trains jitter during playback, and sometimes a lot.

The P310 has an ISO of up to 3200 and a lens that offers the same fast maximum aperture of f/1.8. New features include a lens-shift vibration reduction (VR) function which offers camera shake compensation equivalent to a four-step increase in shutter speed, a custom function button on the front of...
Pros:
- Pocket-size
- high quality camera
Cons:
- The P310 definitely looks a lot like Canon’s S100
- it’s clear that Nikon is trying its damnedest to focus attention away from Canon
