Nikon Coolpix P300 Full Review
While it reached market in the states in March of 2011, Nikon's compact Coolpix P300 digital has only just now reached us for your review. Once upon a time Nikon thought we would segment its compact digital market with letter designations for various categories of cameras: P stood for "performance," S for "style," etc. While the letter designations stay in Nikon's compact lineup, they haven't yet marketed these distinctions as aggressively since they have before. However, a fast have a look at several of the technical specifics of the P300 should leave little doubt that Nikon was deciding on performance with the introduction with this camera.
In the first instance, the P300 includes 24 to 100mm zoom lens (35mm equivalent) with a maximum aperture of f/1.8 along at the wide end of that zoom - the fastest lens on any Nikon Coolpix camera, ever. In the telephoto end with the f/4.9 maximum aperture, while not blazing fast, it's as speedy invariably competitors. Your camera also features full 1080p HD video, as well as its 12.2 megapixel backside illuminated CMOS sensor shows the commitment of improved lowlight noise performance over more conventional designs of similar size and resolution.
The EXPEED C2 processing engine could be the latest generation of Coolpix technology plus the camera offers full manual controls beyond the obligatory auto and scene shooting options. ISO sensitivity range is 160 to 3200, along with the 3.0-inch LCD monitor provides you with a great check out things for image composition, capture or review. There is a smile timer that may automatically release the shutter when your subject smiles, face priority autofocus and blink warning that may alert you if the subject could have blinked (and you can consider taking another shot). Interject optical vibration reduction (VR) as well as P300 is beginning to resemble a camera that Nikon isn't holding much back on within the performance arena.
The Nikon P300 packs approximately 90MB of internal memory, plus the camera tends to make usage of SD/SDHC/SDXC memory media. Nikon provides a camera strap, lithium ion battery and AC charging adapter, USB and A/V cables, CD-ROM software including a printed basic user's manual with each camera.
In some recoverable format the P300's technical specifications suggest a camera designed to fascinate both entry-level consumers in addition to more complex users. Let's see when the printed words result in true performance out in area of.
