The Nikon Coolpix P7000 is an advanced digital camera. It is aimed at serious amateur and professional photographers. Many people are likely to see it as an ideal second camera for times when a Digital SLR may not be practical.
As you might expect the Coolpix P7000 has a full set of manual exposure controls. Manual focusing is available too. In burst mode the camera can capture still images at a rate of 1.3 frames per second.
Nikon have included a couple of features that help make the Coolpix P7000 stand out from other cameras in their range. For example this camera includes an optical viewfinder. The LCD screen should also be of a higher quality. It is 3 inches in size and has 921,000 pixels. This is a high resolution when compared to the more standard 230,000 pixels and should guarantee much greater levels of clarity.
Standard features include 10 megapixels and a 7.1x wide angle lens. You also have access to image stabilisation and High Definition movies. For close up shots the macro mode can focus from 3cm away from the subject. Photos can be saved as RAW files. This allows for much greater control over any editing you may wish to do after a photo has been taken.
To further enhance the Coolpix P7000 you can also buy a remote control unit and a wide angle lens converter.
