Nikon Coolpix P4 Reviews

Great image quality ; lots of options

No manual exposure control

If you don't need Wi-Fi, the Nikon Coolpix P4 is a great alternative to the Coolpix P3.

This 8-megapixel point-and-shoot digital camera is a nonwireless version of the Nikon Coolpix P3.

Nikon Coolpix P4 Digital Camera Review

The Coolpix P4 is the same camera as Coolpix P3, except that it's lacking the Wi-Fi feature (IEEE 802.11b/g wireless range up to 30m). Nikon Coolpix P4 is also the first compact to include their Vibration reduction technology (image stabilisation). It ...

Nikon Coolpix P4

By Richard Baguley

This small camera's antishake feature works well, though image quality overall is average.

Effective antishake feature, Sleek design

Some controls are awkward to use, Lacks manual controls

Perhaps the most notable feature of the small, lightweight Coolpix P4 is its vibration reduction mode. The basic controls on the soap bar-styled P4 ($400 as of 6/15/06) are well laid out: The shutter release button falls under the index finger and...

The battery life from the 1100-mAh lithium ion battery was an above-average 270 shots

Nikon Coolpix P4

By Brad Soo

When Nikon's first two P-series cameras were launched, they were good but not very stylish. The new Nikon P3 and P4 do away with the P1 and P2's "bulky" look and feature a silky metal casing. The P3 is higher-end than the P4 surprisingly and the ...

3.5x zoom lens with optical image stabilization ; 2.5 inch LCD with average resolution and visibility ; Good build quality ; Aperture control and some other changeable settings ; User-friendly; many scene modes and built-in help ; Interval shooting ...

Below average battery life ; Not for low-light; average flash, poor AF in the dark, no ISO 800 ; Slow performance in almost all aspects, small buffer ; No control over shutter speed, no live histogram either ; Plastic compartment door and tripod mount ...

The Nikon Coolpix P4 has some 8 megapixels in a CCD behind its 3.5X optically image stabilized lens as well as a 2.5 inch LCD on its back.
