Nikon Coolpix P510 (Black) price range: $254.00 - $376.95
- Reviewed by: Joshua Goldman
- Reviewed on: 03/21/2012
- Released on: 02/15/2012
The good: The Nikon Coolpix P510 is a fun camera to shoot with, overflowing with photo and movie features, and backed by very fast shooting performance and excellent low-ISO photo quality.
The bad: The P510 has trouble focusing at the telephoto end and its low-light/high-ISO photo quality has room for improvement. Also, the camera feels cheaply constructed.
The bottom line: The Nikon Coolpix P510 is easy to recommend for its features, photos, and performance, but the usefulness of a 42x zoom lens is debatable.

Good still camera, but video Hell.
by pablored on June 3, 2013
Pros: Great adaptability. Excellent for travel use, and you get great flexibility with only one lens.
Cons: Video Hell-- or at least purgatory. Not a good thing for Nikon's reputation, won't hold focus, image is not that crisp and steady feature is a "steady disappointment."
Summary: Until I tried the video on this camera, was never going to consider Canon. That has now changed.
