I currently had been using a Nikon D 5100 series digital camera but really wanted a more"point and shoot" type without losing the picture quality and functionality of a larger size camera. Enter the Nikon Coolpix P900. It sold me with it's 2000mm Monster Zoom lens, it's wide angle lens feature as well as the Nikon brand. After reading the enclosed and also downloaded PDF file I have found usage very easy for even the least experienced amatuer photographer. The "near-field" function is just stellar, allowing the camera to download the pictures via a cell phone or laptops WiFi. It worked seamlessly. If your looking for a super do it all fast, easy camera to use, this is the one you and I have been looking for. I rate a full 5 stars. No complaints at all.

Sharp, crisp, pictures, most of the time. Focusing is sometimes an issue. Manual focus is awkward. The person with shaky hands will have difficulty keeping the camera on target at the higher magnification and will need a tripod. The pictures at higher magnification are mixed, sharp to too soft and thus fuzzy.

I use this camera for bird photography, mostly to aid in identification. I took it to Africa where three of us had this same make and model. It is really an amazingly useful tool. It is not designed to take world class photos for National Geographic. But I have taken some decent photographs and it has made me a better birder. The zoom feature allows you to ID a bird that is ridiculously far away. Or ID a bird that is badly backlit (aren't they all backlit?!) by using the D-lighting feature. I really like this camera. It is easy to carry it around with my binoculars and my scope. I use a Spider holster for the camera (https://spiderholster.com/product/black-widow-holster-kit/) and it is excellent. My binoculars will never again bang up against my camera. If you are into birding or other wildlife, get this camera.Read full review

This is my go to camera for vactions as it is a no think all in one. Has enough settings to allow some creativity but this is mostly a snapshot camera for memories. . Better than your phone but not equal to a DSLR. Small sensor allows for extreme magnification. Lens is very good and the huge zoom range means that no other lens is needed. Photos are clear, sharp, and vibrant. Liked the bracketing feature that allows for HDR in post processing.

Long zoom lens is what this camera is all about. Not only is it good for long distance work, but I like being able to compose a photo, cropping as I go. Long optical zoom means I get high resolution photos. Scenes and pre sets are good and allow you to get good photos in situations you are not familiar with like night landscapes and fireworks. The camera weighs more than the average point and shoot, but it is well balanced and comfortable (and less than DLRs with shorter lenses). Battery life is not a problem for a days shooting and controls seem to be right where they should be for easy use. I like the automatic switch between eye view and monitor view. The viewfinder allows me to support the camera better for long distance shooting. I've used a tripod and monopod when I am composing shots and for moon shots.Read full review
