Product Information

Colors look good in thumbnails, but once you take a closer look at the big JPEGs, everything is fuzzy and noisy. Base ISO and RAW editing don't look like they help much either.

By default, the P950 uses 'full-time AF' which aims to continuously maintain an in-focus image in the viewfinder. Most likely you'll never need to change this setting, but it can be easily disabled in the menu system if you prefer. How does it perform? The flash settings on the Nikon Coolpix P950 are Auto, Auto with Red-eye reduction, Fill Flash, Manual (Full, 1/2, 1/4 1/8, 1/16, 1/32 and 1/64), Slow Sync, Rear-curtain Sync and Flash Off.

Micro-USB connector (Do not use any USB cable other than the included UC-E21 USB Cable.), Hi-Speed USB Diffraction isn't a myth, it is a physical fact. The P950 can certainly take decent shots at shorter focal lengths where the max aperture is larger thus diffraction effects are less. Even if it had a theoretical perfect lens, it could never deliver sharp images at the extreme of its zoom due to diffraction. At the top of the camera’s grip you’ll find the shutter release button, as well as one of two ways to zoom the lens in and out. If you prefer, you can also use a switch on the left hand side of the lens to extend it from the wide-angle to the telephoto end of the lens. This camera can't match the picture quality of my massively more expensive FF DSLR and its humungous and weighty 500mm lens even if I do have to crop the bejesus out of it'. Rinse repeat.Users can rely on the P950 to photograph life’s most unique subjects with incredible accuracy and focus thanks to its Target Finding AF capabilities, 7 fps continuous shooting and ISO sensitivity up to 6400. A great option for photographers of all skill levels, the COOLPIX P950 features user-friendly controls alongside an intuitive menu system and a 2359k-dot EVF, making it easier to review and capture one-of-a-kind shots. Using dedicated Bird-Watching and Moon Modes, photographers can effortlessly snap photos of their world and beyond. The new P950 also adds RAW (NRW) photo recording, an enhanced high-resolution electronic viewfinder and Nikon SnapBridge 2,3,4 to seamlessly share images or remotely control the camera. With f/2.8 maximum aperture and Super ED glass to help reduce distortion at high zoom, you’ll be able to keep super sharp images even at the full extent of the focal length. The lens and sensor are unchanged from the P900, so we expect (and see) image quality that's essentially unchanged versus the previous model. 125mm (700mm equivalent), f/5.6, 1/500-second, ISO 125 The Nikon Coolpix P950 has 7 sensitivity settings ranging from ISO 100 to ISO 6400 at full resolution for both JPEG and Raw file formats.

Birds come in all sizes. Most of the birds are not that far away, they are just small. The birdfeeder isn't that far away, but the usual little Finches and Robins won't fill the frame by far at the distance with a RX10III or IV and every now and then, there will be some uncommon visitors. kkoba - That isn't necessarily the case. There are plenty of budget cameras that can equal or beat more expensive ones in terms of image quality. Oh, and yes, for shooting up to 600mm equiv, the RX10M3 and M4 are FAR better choices! In pretty much every way. And boy, I'm no fan of Sony! No contest there though.

The 83x optical zoom of the COOLPIX P950 covers an incredible focal-length range, from wide-angle 24mm1 to super-telephoto 2,000mm1 and everything in between. With a zoom this powerful, you can capture distant subjects far beyond the reach of an ordinary camera—from birds and other animals in the wild, to distant landscapes, aircraft and even planets. Dynamic Fine Zoom2, an enhanced digital zoom that effectively doubles the reach to a 4,000mm1, allowing for even greater zoom potential. At the other end of the spectrum, macro photography can be captured as close as approx. 1 cm/0.4 in.3. From macro close-ups to extreme telephoto superzoom , the COOLPIX P950 delivers sharp, clear and beautiful images, all in a compact, highly portable body. A 2359k-dot viewfinder includes a sensor for automatically detecting when the camera has been lifted to the eye. This 'finder is one of the key improvements made to the P950 over its predecessor, being over twice the resolution. It’s a much better experience and gives you a decent view of the scene in front of you.My post was to express my opinion that it's worth spending 40% more in this particular instance, to get a camera that will be used a lot more often. Bird-watching mode lets you select three different AF areas to keep fast-moving subjects in focus. Moon mode optimises camera settings for clear astronomical images: ideal for capturing the moon in all its phases.
