DPReview Posts Nikon Coolpix 8800 Review
DPReview have just posted their full review of the new 8 megapixel Nikon Coolpix 8800.
“The Coolpix 8800 is out to prove that it’s a credible alternative to the new cheaper digital SLR’s and a set of lenses. From a practicality stand point it certainly delivers, in a package not much bigger than the smallest D-SLR you get eight megapixels and a 35 - 350 mm equiv. lens with Vibration Reduction. Next you consider the price, which may seem high but when you take into account how much a D-SLR and matching set of lenses would cost it does start to make sense. Where the 8800 can’t compete however is noise at higher sensitivities and the ‘SLR shooting experience’ (camera feel, manual zoom, AF speed, shutter lag and processing / write speed).”
