Pre Order Nikon COOLPIX P500 12.1 MP and Full specifications
Competition between brands of cameras are seemingly endless. When the first power of the zoom lens on a camera only range between 3-10x zoom, so now is not funny anymore if there is a lens that can have up to 30x zoom power. Nikon even break the record this time as a camera with world’s longest zoom lens with 36x zoom or a 22.5-810 mm lens with the camera launches Coolpix P500.
Nikon adds a new product in P series is an ultra zoom Nikon Coolpix P100 P 500 which is the successor to the 26x zoom. Nikon P 500 features 12.1 Megapixel CMOS image sensor, 36x optical Nikkor zoom lens with 22.5mm wide angle, and 3-inch LCD display with anti-reflection coating. This camera uses Nikon’s EXPEED image processor double C2.
Camera with a zoom this large COOLPIX P 500 offers an ISO up to 3200, sensor shift + electronic vibration reduction (VR) function, Easy Panorama function, continuous shooting at 5fps high speed, filter effects, modes Night Landscape and Night Portrait, and function lights Background HDR. The camera has full manual control and has an electronic viewfinder is sharp, steady shooting but it also supports Full HD 1080p video recording and provides an HDMI output. complete with stereo audio and the ability to zoom while recording video. With its not much different from other superzoom cameras, Nikon kept secret that is able to package the 36x zoom lens in a compact dimension. kamera which weighs less than 500 grams is able to accommodate a 22.5-810 mm lens f/3.4-5.7 ED Nikkor is very effective for the landscape with its wideangle at 22.5 mm and is able to reach very far with up to 810 mm telephoto.
You may wonder why a lens with a telephoto capabilities that far, considering the daily use of 200 mm focal lens alone is very adequate for ordinary tele affairs. But that competition, at least on paper Nikon already incised history as a camera with a zoom lens is very long.
No doubt the presence Coolpix P 500 superzoom cameras will enliven the market and maybe other brands will make similar products and this competition will have a positive impact to reduce the selling price. We’ll wait
