The Nikon COOLPIX P600 – Sophisticated performance for heightened creativity

Created for those who love capturing every detail, the portable yet powerful COOLPIX P600 combines exquisite precision and a super-zoom lens with a beautifully designed body.

Its 60x optical zoom NIKKOR lens, extendable to 120x with Dynamic Fine Zoom*, covers a 24-1440mm range and has Super ED glass for exceptional image quality. In perfect complement to the camera’s extreme close-up capabilities, the COOLPIX P600 features a large vari-angle high resolution (921k dots) LCD screen with bright RGBW technology to help artistic photographers get a unique view and frame shots more creatively. Meanwhile, Advanced Lens Shift Vibration Reduction (VR) ensures clear images even at 60x telephoto and Active mode minimises camera shake when walking or shooting from a moving vehicle, even in the hands of the most dynamic action photographers. 

New features like focus peaking emphasise the edges of a focused area so you can easily view them on-screen and adjust the intensity for finer detail. Meanwhile the camera’s smart AF algorithm and multitask processor ensure you can always catch key moments in perfect focus with significantly reduced waiting time between shots. Built-in Wi-Fi makes it easy to share all your adventures, via a smart device for instant uploading via email or social media networks**. 

Another advantage for those who like a portable camera to explore the great outdoors is continuous shooting up to 7fps, which is ideal for capturing images of a fast-moving animal or a speeding car. For budding filmmakers, the COOLPIX P600 records Full HD 1080/60i movies with stereo sound at the touch of a button, allowing you to document a high quality scene from any angle. The Customisable Function Button mode gives rapid access to settings like ISO sensitivity, white balance or exposure metering for full creative control. 

James Loader, Senior Product Manager Consumer Products at Nikon UK, comments: “The COOLPIX P600 is a high performance camera that is set to impress, thanks to the incredible 60x zoom lens, superb image quality and full manual control for creative flexibility. 

He adds: “As a leading product in the COOLPIX range, the P600 includes useful features like one-touch Full HD movie making, focus peaking, new smart AF algorithm and a vari-angle screen to get the best results in both your photography and videography.”

The COOLPIX P600 will be available in black and red.
