Nikon Coolpix P3 review at dpinterface
Posted by Steve on June 19th, 2006
A review of the Nikon Coolpix P3 digital camera is available at dpinterface. The Nikon Coolpix P3 is a compact digital camera with 8.1 megapixel resolution, a 3.5 times optical zoom and a large 2.5 inch LCD display. The Coolpix P3 has some impressive features, with Wi-Fi capability and a vibration reduction being the two most outstanding ones.
The results of the review:
“The Nikon Coolpix P3 has good build quality save for the two weak plastic spots. The P3 has good image quality as well - noise at ISO 400 was well controlled for an 8 megapixel camera which makes me wonder why Nikon didn’t include an ISO 800 option.
Sadly, the P3 also has the same weaknesses as the P4 - namely poor battery life, no high sensitivity options and slow performance. […]
The Nikon Coolpix P3 is a great value, selling for the same as the P4 and adding WiFi. The Coolpix P3 is a great value when compared to other cameras as well - currently, you’re paying a $20 premium for the WiFi. I’d recommend the Nikon Coolpix P3 though you might want to consider a bit since 1) if you don’t need a WiFi camera, then some other 8 megapixel cameras offer more controls and 2) this camera isn’t great for low-light or action shots.”
