Nikon Coolpix P3 Review at DPReview
DPReview have reviewed the new Nikon Coolpix P3 camera, which offers 8.1 megapixels, 3.5x optical zoom lens and a 2.5 inch LCD.
“The Coolpix P3 offers a reviewer something of a dilemma; am I to judge it based on its potential to produce superb images in the right hands? Or do I rate it on the fact that not only do the default settings result in images that are way too soft and ‘flat’ for what we presume to be the target users, but that the autofocus and auto exposure systems often get things wrong too? In the end the answer has to be the latter; a camera like the P3 is most likely to be used in good old ‘point and shoot’ mode, and I’m afraid that Nikon’s (admirable in some ways) decision to avoid ‘over processed’ results will disappoint the typical user.”
