Nikon COOLPIX P1100 Superzoom Digital Camera | 125x Optical Zoom with Image Stabilization 16 MP 4K Ultra HD Video Wi-Fi Connectivity RAW Format and Rotating LCD Screen (Black)

Excelente camara

Not much of an upgrade from the previous version but these "Super zoom" cameras are cool for what they will do.... And this one has good video quality for my purposes. I rarely take video and am mostly taking wildlife shots just for enjoyment.

I took it out for a trial run yesterday. It was afternoon and sunny, though overcast. I immediately put a UV lens for protection and a shoe for a tripod. I looked at all the photos on my computer and was a bit worried about the picture quality. I really thought I would need to send it back. Then I decided to print some of the pictures. I chose the two I thought were the best quality. The 5 by 7 were good. One I printed 8 by 10 one lost detail (prob a focus issue) but the other still looked fairly sharp. My concern was the 11 by 17. I was prepared to be disappointed, but it looked amazingly good, not pro quality, but sharp enough the I could see good details. My eyes didn't feel like I was looking at something out of focus. I still have a lot to learn about this camera. Getting it to focus on exactly what I wanted focused, may take some time while I learn more about the camera and all of its functions. My initial thoughts are that this camera is good, not great (great would cost me upwards of $5,000.00 or more). At really high lens zoom the sharpness does suffer. Don't bother with the digital zoom, it is useless. You will certainly want a good sturdy tripod. Don't skimp here. At high zoom you won't be able to hold the camera still enough to take a decent photo. Weight: on the heavy side (it was too heavy for my tripod to hold it in the place I set it) Auto focus: fair (my phone camera is better) Value: Okay. Ease of use: There is a learning curve. Manuals for all features are on-line. Not my favorite way to access the info.

I bought this camera for an upcoming trip that I am limited on weight and cannot bring my usual camera/lenses. I wanted a super zoom lens so I don’t have to get too close to the wildlife I want to film. The pictures I took to test out the camera are all from my yard. The birds pictures were taken across the yard on “bird mode” without a tripod. The moon pictures were taken with a tripod on “moon mode”. The pictures turned out very clear. I was amazed how easy it was to get the amazing shots of the moon. The only con I can think of is the camera is a little awkward due to the size. My advice if buying the camera be sure to buy a memory card, battery charger, and cable to to tranfer photos to phone, ipad, etc. at the time of of purchase so you can begin taking pictures asap!!!

This is my first new camera after using multiple used cameras and I can confidently say it's worth the purchase of you don't already have something similar to it. If you're used to Nikon then the controls will come to you naturally and the fit in hand is also great. I did get the tripod mount support from JoelSchat on Etsy cause it does want to rock forward a bit on the stand so I'd recommend that too.

A bit on the heavy side, but man what a zoom!

poor photo resolution even when not at high optical zoom. Apparently from what i read to achieve its very high optical zoom it had to sacrifice image quality even at lower zoom levels. I would have returned it but i was past the return date when i finally realized that the sub par image quality was the camera itself and not the lighting or settings i was using. The canon SX 70 hs while only having 1/2 the optical zoom capability compared to this nikon takes MUCH higher resolution photos

Although a bit on the heavy side, I love this camera. I ordered more batteries that came with chargers so I will always have battery life. I do birding so I set the mode to the birding dial And it takes great photos.amateur photographer here so I stick with this setting.i bought the book that is geared to this camera so will be looking at that for specific tips. I know that when the lens is at the farthest point, a tripod is recommended. I bought this new just check on that if you want used vs. new.

The camera performs well overall, but this specific product has a problem with the zoom function.

Una excelente camara , fácil de usar y un zoom increíble

Still getting used to the camera but so far I have no issues, yes it is a big camera but it is not as heavy as I thought it would be. A sturdy tripod is required when using the zoom at full length.

Pesa bastante y se batalla para manejarla manualmente, necesita un tripie, pero.tiene un zoom excelente!!

高額のカメラ数台接写と望遠楽しんでいますがもたくて腕がもげそうになりますので一体型切り替えです映り軽くていいです年劣るとこうなるのかな 凄くいいです移動するのも楽です 交換してよかっつた
