Nikon COOLPIX P1000 16.7 Digital Camera with 3.2 LCD, Black

  • I am a DSLR photographer. I do a lot of bird photography. I have a nikon 200-500mm ED VR with a Nikon D750, a Canon 6D Mark II with a Sigma 150-650mm, a Pentax K-1 with a Pentax 150-450mm AW, and a Canon 77D with a Canon 400mm L, a Sigma 100-400mm with a Nikon D3400.I am describing my gear to the reader so he/she will see how my review will be influenced by my current setup. Anytime I carry any of my gear mentioned above, I am looking at a good 4 to 8 lbs of gear strapped on my chest and hiking miles of trail. The Nikon Coolpix P1000 can never beat the image quality of a proper DSLR. The Nikon Coolpix P1000 is NO MATCH against sharpness and clarity of the images that my DSLRs produce. NO MATCH...and that is understandable. BUT...sometimes, I feel like I don\'t want to haul heavy gear. Sometimes, I just want to enjoy the scenery and the walk but still having the capability to take photos. Sometimes, I just want to be silly and just take photos of anything...a rock, a bird, a raccoon paw print, the bark of a tree. Enter the Nikon P1000.The Nikon Coolpix P1000 is an excellent point and shoot camera as long you know its limitations. The camera uses a tiny sensor, a smartphone sensor, so low light is the first challenge already. Now, there is a way to squeeze out light from this sensor by going Manual, or Aperture Priority and adjusting the ISO to 3200 or 6400 (max ISO). The next challenge is the 125X zoom power. You can get great quality images between 24-1500mm handheld as long as you keep your shutter speed around 500-1000, and then push the ISO a bit. Shooting handheld with this camera is doable as long you keep your zoom range within a reasonable range. Once you push pass 1500, you are now faced with hand shaking, wind, your breathing, the twitch of your arm, they start multiplying ten-fold as you push your zoom range closer to 3000mm. The next question is: do you need a tripod to push 3000? This is up to you. Remember though, when you push 3000mm even with a tripod, the quality of the image degrades because of the distance and size of the subject. This is a fact and it must be accepted by the user because it\'s just how the technology was built into this system, and the reality that 3000mm will start picking up heat shimmers, wind etc start showing up. It is the nature of super-telephoto lenses- any lens in the market. Do not be upset or disappointed when you see these issues at higher zooms, it is not Coolpix P1000s fault. It\'s just the nature of super zooms.Let\'s get the weight issue out of the way. It\'s about 2lbs maybe? Not sure because I am so used to carrying heavy camera gear that having this Coolpix P1000, to me, is very light. It might feel heavy for others not used to carrying heavy camera gear. But for me, this camera is light as \"feather\" so to speak, in relation to my heavy gear. Anyway, the point is..it\'s not going to break your hip or back. After you use this camera on several trips and hikes, your body will eventually adjust to the weight.What about images within ranges of 24-1500? I can say they look good to great. I know this is a point and shoot camera but if you really want to get the best out of this camera, the user needs to learn other forms of shooting styles, particularly using the different shooting modes- M, A, S. Trust me. Learning these other shooting modes will really bring out Nikon Coolpix P1000s capabilities from a point and shoot to a intermediate \"DSLR\"-like features.The Nikon Coolpix P1000 also has features like RAW format. Note that if you are using RAW format, the digital zoom is not available. Optical zoom at RAW format only goes up to 3000mm. Note that there are two zooms...Optical and Digital. User needs to read the full manual just in case they notice a function doesn\'t work; chances are the functionality isn\'t available at that moment because the camera locked you out because of a setting you made. Again, these are all described in full manual. The Quick manual that came with the camera is just a quick reference guide. You will need to download the full manual free from Nikon USA\'s website. This full manual will tell you EVERYTHING that you need to know about the camera.The Coolpix also has other \"DSLR\" like features like Spot metering, Center-weighted, Matrix. It also has manual AF select, Spot focusing; typical focusing features found in proper DSLRs. You can also set the ISO number. If you want to change ISO without going thru the MENU interface, you can assign the FN button to pull up the ISO numbers. Lots of neat stuff. All of thse are described in the full manual.What about battery use? You will need an extra battery. Please please use Nikon batteries. Do not use third-party batteries. Since you\'ve already invested $1000 on a camera, there\'s no reason for you to go cheap on the battery. Bite the bullet and get a Nikon battery. Don\'t get those Wasabi or Watson batteries. Spend a bit more on real genuine Nikon batteries. Rated at 250 shots according to Nikon. Some ways to save battery power is to not use the Monitor all the time. Have the auto power off setting at 30 seconds.The Nikon Coolpix comes with a strap, a Nikon battery, a USB cable, a USB charging adapter, warranty card, manual, lens hood, lens cap.Accessories you need to start with? I strongly suggest getting a UV lens filter for this camera. The filter size is 77mm. I also suggest using a shoulder strap instead of the neck strap that came with the Nikon Coolpix P1000. Never ever strap a camera around your neck. I really think neck straps should not be used for cameras of this size as this causes neck strain. Please get a good shoulder strap. You might want to get a wired Nikon MC-DC2 remote release cord. It\'s no expensive. Do not get the Nikon Bluetooth remote cord- too expensive. Start with the Nikon MC-DC2. This remote cord helps you press the shutter button remotely (it\'s wired) to reduce vibration/shaking when you are focusing at a distant object; for example, the moon. You might want to invest on tripod. Just make sure the camera is well-tethered to you when attaching this camera to a tripod.Overall, I am happy with my Nikon Coolpix P1000. I am still testing all its capabilities. I recommend this camera to those looking for an all in one camera. Again, I can\'t stress enough about knowing its limitations. It takes great images as long as you know how to utilize its \"powers\".And finally, practice practice practice. The camera is just a device, majority of the work will have to come from the user for this camera to come up with great images. Highly recommended camera.
  • I was fortunate to buy a like-new camera from Japan. This is *not* an everyday camera, it\'s big and heavy, but I\'ve taken photos of structures 11 miles away. And decent images of people a few miles away. There is even a built-in \"moon mode\" that set the focus at infinity and compensates for a bright moon filling most of the frame. For quality images from this tiny sensor, I stack several images to reduce noise and improve the detail. Distant shots are nearly always affected by thermal distortion, that\'s a given.For walk-around shots, your current phone will probably give better results. For distant shots (and even photos of planets -- search the web) it\'s great. I\'m certainly glad I purchased this niche camera, especially at a used price and with Amazon\'s return policy.I\'ve attached a (stacked) photo of the Arizona Memorial from the U.S.S.Missouri
  • Update: After several months and over 10,000 photos of birds and other wildlife, I have upgraded my review to 5 stars. This is clearly the best birding camera I have ever owned, including a Canon 7D DSLR camera with a 400mm zoom lens. I have found that if I turn the display inward (facing into the back of the camera) it will stay off. The viewfinder also stays off unless I lift the camera to my face to view it. So, I can leave the camera turned on while I take nature walks without running down the battery as fast. This allows me to capture pictures much faster before a bird or other subject moves out of sight. The battery still runs down after about 1.5 hours, but I keep a spare battery in my pocket. This allows me to catch birds in flight almost as easily as the 7D. For birds sitting still, especially at long distances, the P1000 is way better, hands down. Low light performance is also way better with the P1000. Videos of an eagle nest at 1/3 mile using a tripod are very good, as good as our $1600 spotting scope. Viewing the movie as it is being taken on the display screen is also about as good as our spotting scope.Original review:The best part about this camera is the electronic viewfinder. It is bright and detailed enough to make the camera like a hand-held image-stabilized spotting scope with automatic focus and brightness adjustment. I watched an eagle pair working on their nest from 1/3 mile away. The view through the view finder was almost as good as a $1600 spotting scope (85mm x 60). That alone is worth the price. I tried to upload a hand-held movie of it, but the upload conversion turned it into garbage. The original movie was almost as good as the view through the viewfinder.The still pictures at long zoom look substantially less detailed than what the eye sees through the viewfinder. That tells me that the image processing (frame averaging, etc.) in human vision is better than in the camera. So, we can expect that future super-zoom cameras will improve dramatically as the image processing becomes faster and more sophisticated.Low light performance, especially autofocus at long zoom settings is bad, but it is easy to quickly switch to manual focus. The focus ring is easy to operate.I compared this to my old Nikon P900 and found no obvious improvement in zoom reach. The picture is bigger at max zoom, but the amount of detail is about the same. So the increase is size, weight was for naught.I still consider this a substantial upgrade because of the brighter and more detailed viewfinder and the easy manual focus. That makes a huge difference in finding the bird or other target, composing the picture, and adjusting brightness and focus.If I could redesign the P900 to my liking, I would make its grip bigger to fit my large hands, make the battery bigger, make the the battery charge indication more accurate, replace the viewfinder with the one from the P1000, and give it an adjustment ring and manual focus like the P1000.
