As I mentioned earlier in my previous blogs that I have three cameras - Sony CyberShot DSC-S3000, Canon PowerShot SX500 IS, and Canon EOS 1100D, the last one being an entry-level DSLR camera. However, I was looking for an ultrazoom bridge camera and some of my photography enthusiast friends told me to go for Nikon. After browsing some of the latest products by Nikon, I decided to go for Nikon Coolpix P600.
So, I went to Harmony House, a well-known consumer electronics showroom near our house in Baishnabghata Patuli Township area. Cameras are available on the first floor. I went there on 12th October, 2015 and it was the auspicious day of Mahalaya. The salesman present there told me that there was a wonderful offer which would help me get a fabulous discount of around INR 3,000 on the price of Nikon Coolpix P600 and it was available for that particular day only. I went for it and bought it on finance. Given below is a sample image captured by this camera.
About Nikon Coolpix P600
Nikon Coolpix P600 is an ultrazoom bridge camera which was launched by Nikon about one and a half years ago. It has a number of similarities with an entry level DSLR camera, which help it put itself in a very high bracket as far as quality and efficiency are concerned. When it comes to the maximum equivalent focal length, P600 was the leader before Sony CyberShot DSC-H400 with 1550 mm MEFL was launched. P600 has a maximum equivalent focal length of 1440 mm. Given below are some other salient features of this outstanding camera:
Excellent image quality, 60x optical zoom, Wi-Fi and ease of use make it one of the most sought-after contemporary bridge cameras. In addition, it features an electronic viewfinder so users have the option to use the EVF or the LCD as per their convenience. You will find the viewfinder button just towards the right of the electronic viewfinder and this enables you to switch to and fro between EVF and LCD. An ideal choice for avid photographers who are looking for a very wide zoom range. Next blog coming up very soon! See you till then.
