Nikon COOLPIX P3 & P4 - ‘P’ series cameras, the Coolpix P3 and P4. Offering 8.1 million pixels, Nikon’s VR (Vibration Reduction) capability (originally developed for Nikon SLRs), 3.5x Zoom-Nikkor lens and a large 2.5-inch screen. The P3 also features built-in Wi-Fi capability. Both models incorporate a high-quality 3.5x Zoom-Nikkor lens with a focal range equivalent to that of a 36-126mm lens in 35mm format. This provides ample opportunity to zoom in for close compositions, zoom right out to capture breathtaking scenery and even enjoy macro shooting from as close as 4cm.

Both cameras offer Aperture-priority Auto mode to let photographers benefit from aperture control in 1/3EV steps, so they can select large apertures for attractive background blurring or stop down to small apertures to extend crisp focus into the distance – all while the camera automatically selects the most appropriate shutter speed for optimized exposure. The COOLPIX P3 and P4 make it easy to shoot movies with sound, with a choice of three modes offering up to 30fps performance. There’s also a Time-lapse movie mode that uses pictures shot with the Interval timer shooting function to create a movie in which the action appears speeded up.
