For comparison, the D3300 with the 18-55mm lens costs around $450 and the P610 costs around $340. The last time I checked today, a new camera costs around $650 on (visit for updated prices).
P610 zoom test manual#
The Nikon Coolpix P900 lack a touchscreen display, but is has many of the features that the targeted market ared about, including good battery life, built-in GPS, rotating display, built-in Wireless capability, fast burst, full manual controls, responsive operation and short shooting time lag, dual-detect VR image stabilization, good ergonomic design and of course, an amazing telephoto zoom lens.īottom line, the Nikon Coolpix P900 is the ultimate travel camera and one that will give you the opportunity to capture unique footage that only few photographers can capture all that in a relatively light and small camera body.
That being said, it was designed to satisfy the needs and demands of the casual family and travel photographer, which for him or her, 4K videos, 1/8000 sec shutter speed or very high resolution EVF aren’t necessary. It doesn’t have 4K video recording nor a very high EVF resolution. Leaving the amazing zoom aside for a moment, the P900 is an average bridge camera all in all.

Now for the most interesting part, a demonstration of the zoom range. Nikon is well known for its very effective image stabilization system and this particular VR module provides 5.0 stops (CIPA Standard) of stabilization compensation, which as I mentioned, it’s essential to produce sharp images and steady videos. A VR is very important here, because it needs to stabilize and hand movements, and in such a long focal length range, every movement can lead to a blurred image.

The P900 has a 24-2000 mm equivalent focal length lens with an f/2.8-6.5 aperture, accompanied with Nikon’s lens shift VR and lens-shift plus electronic stabilization for movie recording. So you can see where I’m going with that and what makes the P900 such a unique photographic instrument and a superb travel camera. P900 vs D3300 with a 18-55mm lens depth comparison (via ) In fact, in terms of depth, the P900 has about the same depth as the D3300 with the 18-55 mm lens, check the image below. The thing is that if you consider what setup it takes on a DSLR or an ILC to have this amazing focal length range, the P900 is actually very compact in comparison. So the P900 is in no way a compact camera,but the size of a mid-range DSLR camera more or less. P900 vs P610 vs D3300 size comparison (via )Ī big zoom lens also means a relatively big lens, and we can clearly see in the image above, that the P900 is considerably larger than the P610 and even larger than the D3300. Yep, I wasn’t mistaken with the number of zeroes when I wrote the 35mm equivalent focal length number. As of the time of writing, the P900 has the longest telephoto lens among all ultrazoom cameras, a whopping 83x (2000mm equivalent) optical zoom. This super telephoto zoom bridge camera was announced by Nikon on March 2, 2015. This comparison will be made with the P900 as the anchor of our comparison. So although this comparison seems a bit weird, it’s a very relevant one. It seems that many people are still having a tough time choosing between a superzoom, large-sensor superzoom and an entry-level dSLR camera. In this article we are going to have an uncommon comparison between the the Kin of the superzooms, the P900, versus Nikon P610 (ultrazoom), Panasonic FZ1000 (large-sensor zoom superzoom) and an entry-level APS-C Digital SLR camera, the D3300.
