DO NOT BUY - This camera has problems.

I am on my second P520 and both of them have power shutdown and startup problems. In a given day the camera will not shutdown properly maybe 1 out of every 5 or 6 power cycles: the lens retracts and the displays turn off, but the power light stays on and from that point you can not restart the...

Get an SLR

Camera is large and bulky. The shutter speed is very slow resulting in blurred pictures most of the time. Better off with a digital SLR since this camera is so large and bulky. [...

Resolution choice limited

Has very limited choice for megapixels- 2MP, 4MP, 8MP & 18MP. does not have anything between 8 to 18 megapixels to choose from. Review facility is not user friendly- i am trying to find how to select multiple items for deleting..

Speed great, monitor disconcerting.

I loved the speed and hand balance of the P520. However, when photographing, the monitor does not show the view from through the lens and this had to be constantly accounted for otherwise I lost the front or back of what I was shooting.

Easy to use; Build quality

Bulky; Battery life

Competition in the bridge camera market at the moment is pretty fierce. It's one of the only growing segments in the compact camera market, as users look for something much more advanced than their phone, especially in regards to zoom functionality.

Nikon Coolpix P520

A 42x optical zoom camera at a tempting price

Massive zoom lens; First class LCD screen; Very good value

Iffy GPS accuracy; Build quality only so-so
