COOLPIX P1100 Superzoom Digital Camera | 125x Optical Zoom with Image Stabilization 16 MP 4K Ultra HD Video Wi-Fi Connectivity RAW Format and Rotating LCD Screen (Black)

This is my fourth Nikon Coolpic super zoom. The greatest cameras for bird and animal life when traveling. I have Canon Pro equipment but when hitting the road the combination of super zoom and performance in these cameras is extraordinary. I started with the P900 then two P1000’s and now a P1100. No you are not going to get a 80 meg file but if you learn how to use this camera you will get extraordinary shots you couldn’t get with anything else because of the super zoom. Don’t believe me? check out my FB page where you will see. Going on a safari to Africa this is camera you need. We do a lot of nature photography down here near Marineland in Florida. Extraordinary bird shots. The P1100 is the best del you will ever get capabilities against price and if you view the results on a new iPad your photos will blow your mind!

Love this camera. It is amazing. Funny thing is I thought the weight would be a problem, because the lighter camera I used previously was hard to hold on target; and the thought of holding more weight made me believe my waving would be even worse. But the weight actually helps steady the camera more for those critical shots. Zoom is amazing.

I took it out for a trial run yesterday. It was afternoon and sunny, though overcast. I immediately put a UV lens for protection and a shoe for a tripod. I looked at all the photos on my computer and was a bit worried about the picture quality. I really thought I would need to send it back. Then I decided to print some of the pictures. I chose the two I thought were the best quality. The 5 by 7 were good. One I printed 8 by 10 one lost detail (prob a focus issue) but the other still looked fairly sharp. My concern was the 11 by 17. I was prepared to be disappointed, but it looked amazingly good, not pro quality, but sharp enough the I could see good details. My eyes didn't feel like I was looking at something out of focus. I still have a lot to learn about this camera. Getting it to focus on exactly what I wanted focused, may take some time while I learn more about the camera and all of its functions. My initial thoughts are that this camera is good, not great (great would cost me upwards of $5,000.00 or more). At really high lens zoom the sharpness does suffer. Don't bother with the digital zoom, it is useless. You will certainly want a good sturdy tripod. Don't skimp here. At high zoom you won't be able to hold the camera still enough to take a decent photo. Weight: on the heavy side (it was too heavy for my tripod to hold it in the place I set it) Auto focus: fair (my phone camera is better) Value: Okay. Ease of use: There is a learning curve. Manuals for all features are on-line. Not my favorite way to access the info.

This single camera is able to accomplish what I used to need a bag of extra lenses and supplies besides. It is a real workhorse. I have left my more expensive and heavy equipment behind. It’s a game changer. Far away and up close pictures are a click away…

I bought this camera primarily for astrophotography: Moon and Sun (with appropriate filters!!!). With a 125x zoom, you can get excellent shots of the Moon, provided you use a very stable tripod and a remote shutter and appropriate filters. Same for the Sun. Camera: fantastic zoom capability, very good optics. Adequate functionality. Nikon is purposefully limiting the range of functions and controls available to users, particularly remote functions. Ie: the Snapbridge app is a full function app for Nikon 35mm mid and up market cameras but severly restricted for the P1100 and Nikon's user manual is purposefully vague about the limitations imposed on this camera. That said, if you are looking for a camera with good optics and a powerful zoom, this is it! I am very happy with mine.

Not much of an upgrade from the previous version but these "Super zoom" cameras are cool for what they will do.... And this one has good video quality for my purposes. I rarely take video and am mostly taking wildlife shots just for enjoyment.

I purchased this before going on a trip to Alaska. It did a great job at photographing bear, sheep, moose, fox and caribou from long distances away. The clarity is awesome. Even though is has some stability built in, when taking the zoom out to a max, you will need a tripod to keep things steady. It was great at takings video/pics from different distances. The other tourist we were with were amazed at how close I could get. I took a picture of a glazier about a half mile away, then zoomed in on it to see the crystal formation on the glazier (as if I were 50 feet away).

poor photo resolution even when not at high optical zoom. Apparently from what i read to achieve its very high optical zoom it had to sacrifice image quality even at lower zoom levels. I would have returned it but i was past the return date when i finally realized that the sub par image quality was the camera itself and not the lighting or settings i was using. The canon SX 70 hs while only having 1/2 the optical zoom capability compared to this nikon takes MUCH higher resolution photos

The camera performs well overall, but this specific product has a problem with the zoom function.

Una excelente camara , fácil de usar y un zoom increíble

Still getting used to the camera but so far I have no issues, yes it is a big camera but it is not as heavy as I thought it would be. A sturdy tripod is required when using the zoom at full length.

Pesa bastante y se batalla para manejarla manualmente, necesita un tripie, pero.tiene un zoom excelente!!

My husband had the 950 and upgraded, he is really happy with the 1100. Came when it said,no problems.
