Nikon P7100

Is Nikon's flagship compact a G12 rival?

Good image quality ; Plenty of physical controls incl. dual control dials ; Extended zoom and tiltable LCD add flexibility ; Hotshoe can accomodate regular Speedlights

HD movie capabilities limited to 720p ; Too big for trouser pockets ; Tiny viewfinder

Nikon Coolpix P7100 review

Has Canon's PowerShot G-series finally met its match?

Offers a superb level of manual control ; Very good image quality ; Well-controlled noise ; Very robust build quality ; Plenty of customisable options

No Easy Panorama mode ; Slow continuous shooting rate ; No Full HD movie mode (offers 720p) ; Similar price to an entry-level DSLR

The Nikon Coolpix P7100 is the brand's new replacement for its flagship advanced compact camera - the Coolpix P7000 - and comes with a number of new and upgraded features over its predecessor, including some fresh controls, a high-resolution tilting...

The Nikon Coolpix P7100 upgrades the P7000, with more speed and a tilted LCD

DSLR-like control ; Sturdy construction ; Lots of short cuts controls

Chunky design ; Slightly complex controls ; Screen only tilts up and down

Nikon Coolpix P7100

Nikon's P7100 is built with the high-end user in mind. This 10.1-megapixel, 7.1x optical zoom compact is one of a handful to come equipped with an optical viewfinder - although with a 80 percent field of view it does have its limitations - and the body...

Good image quality, bags of control, addresses its predecessor’s speed issues, RAW shooting

Expensive, Compact System Cameras may undermine this release

The P7100 does a great job in addressing the previous P7000’s issues. While the latest Coolpix is faster in use and has all the controls a demanding user could ask for. We do have to question whether the age of this type of camera is coming to an end,...

Nikon Coolpix P7100 review

The 10-megapixel Nikon Coolpix P7000 caused quite a stir when it was released last year, thanks to its extended feature set and great image quality. So it's no surprise that anticipation was high for its successor, P7100.

Nikon’s Coolpix P7100 is as complex as it is powerful, with excellent image quality and a feature set to please even the fussiest photographer. Just make sure you’re up for the challenge.

Nikon Coolpix 7100 review

The Nikon P7100 is part of a small niche of compact cameras aimed squarely at photography enthusiasts. It's not just the proliferation of buttons and dials that set it apart from consumer-oriented cameras - it's also the premium quality lens and...

A welcome refinement to the P7000 and a pleasure to use, but the sensor isn't up to current standards at this price

Nikon Coolpix P7100 review

In an age of slimming down, I appreciate a camera such as the Nikon Coolpix P7100, which offers something of substance to hold on to with numerous controls that are directly to hand.Those who have used the P7000 will appreciate the enhanced handling...

Nikon COOLPIX P7100 review

Nikon add cool upgrades to their flagship COOLPIX. Another year, another upgrade. Nikon have decided enough...

RAW processing speeds much faster

Optical viewfinder still only gives 80% coverage

Nikon have sensibly retained all the best features of the P7000 and made sensible improvements to processing times, added a more flexible monitor and some extra effects, plus increased customised settings and rapid change options.
