Feature packed snappy but beware...

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

  • Great Features

  • Prone to dirt and dust

Pros:
  • 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
  • Good image quality at low ISOs
  • Generally responsive performance
  • Continuous shooting up to 7fps (but only for 5...
Cons:
  • No RAW option

Nikon COOLPIX P310

In the meat of Nikon's COOLPIX P310 sits a 16MP CMOS sensor and 4.2x optical zoom. The zoom itself covers a 35mm equivalent focal range of 24-100mm, although the main draw is really its fast maximum aperture.
Pros:
  • Good LCD screen
  • Pleasing design
  • PASM control
Cons:
  • Lack of Raw capture
  • Metering and white balance issues

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...

Fine camera, clumsy, hard-to-use manual on a CD

With my Nikon S600, I took its small, compact manual with me whenever I traveled. Even with my D5000 I can take the manual with me. Now this option does not exist. I will have to carry about lots of pages that I have printed.
