Nikon Coolpix P510 Review
In this reviewing business you occasionally get waylaid: in preparing a new camera review I usually begin with the text sources and specs data to feel my way. In this case, I did so, quite carefully, but dug into the wordage of the Nikon Coolpix P5100. Wrong!

Pros:
- Long 42x zoom lens
- Sharp images
- Snappy performance
- 1080p video capture
- Integrated GPS
Cons:
- High-speed burst limited to 5 shots
- No hot shoe or mic input

- In-camera UI is incredibly easy to manipulate
- Very versatile: Shoots macro
- high-zoom
- portrait
- and landscape well – provided the lighting is decent
Cons:
- Video capabilities are limited
- Low light without flash isn't impressive
- Some features just don't pull their weight: GPS and built-in effects
