Nikon Coolpix 4300 Digital Camera Camera

 

WHAT'S HOT: The Coolpix 4300 has what many buyers are looking for in a digital camera, namely a small body and (somewhat) sophisticated controls. Sporting a large grip on the right side, it's easy to operate with one hand (especially if you're...

You can take QuickTime movies without sound; they look sharp and relatively smooth (for 15 frames per second)

Nikon CoolPix 4300 Digital Camera (Nikon-25507)

 

Novices and experts alike may find the Coolpix 4300's menus aggravating, but few cameras of this size take such nice pictures, or offer as many features.

Nikon Coolpix 4300 review: Nikon Coolpix 4300

 

Nikon Coolpix 4300

Solid ergonomics; plenty of photo fine-tuning options; useful array of automatic modes; versatile battery options; accepts lens converters.

No audio in video mode; many settings hidden in menus.

The Nikon Coolpix 4300 warrants strong consideration by sophisticated snapshooters looking for high quality and versatility at a reasonable price.

Digital Cameras - Nikon Coolpix 4300 Digital Camera Review, Information, Specifications

 

Camera Operation A small collection of multi-functional external control buttons make the Coolpix 4300's features and operating modes easy to navigate. (Although I do have a couple of minor gripes, which I'll discuss below.) Exposure compensation,...

My final gripe is a pretty minor one, and I actually agree with the philosophy that led to it: The full-manual exposure mode and manual focus options are both rather "hidden" in the user interface, the former by virtue of being buried two levels deep...

Review: Getting to grips with the Joby Action Grip and Pole

 

Action cameras don't have to be mounted to the chest of a sky-diver, the back of a dog, or the helmet of someone mowing the lawn to shoot interesting footage. The new Joby Action Grip and Pole are action-oriented accessories designed to help users...

Nikon COOLPIX A: hands-on with the latest large-sensor compact camera

 

After the success of the Fujifilm X100, the Sony RX100 and the Canon G1 X, Nikon has finally embraced the idea of putting a large sensor in a compact-sized camera. The result is the Nikon COOLPIX A – which packs a 16.2-megapixel DX-format sensor and...

, the camera doesn't feature a low-pass filter, meaning it should capture finer detail than other equally megapixelled cameras. While we weren't allowed to bring away any of the images we shot with the COOLPIX A, they looked impressively sharp and...

Nikon boosts COOLPIX digital camera line-up

 

In an announcement that seems hot on the heels of Nikon's last major COOLPIX update (though five months is a long time in the digital era), the company has released details of eight new cameras due to hit shelves soon. The four Style Series, one...
