Bottom Line |
The Nikon CoolPix L610 is an affordable and versatile compact digicam. This comfortable digicam performed okay and produced good images. It is a descent point-n-shoot for anyone that is not looking for anything fancy. Read more in our Full Conclusion. |
For the budget-minded, Nikon announced the all new Coolpix L610 in the latter half of 2012, which features a large 16-megapixel CMOS sensor, a long 14x optical zoom lens (25-350mm in 35mm terms), an industry standard 3.0-inch LCD monitor. You can also record Full HD 1080p video, and video mode even gets its own separate record button, for instant use no matter what shooting mode you are in.
Another nice feature is Easy Auto Mode. Simply turn it on, and the L610 will automatically select one of six pre-programmed Scene Modes that best fits your current shooting conditions. Sharing your still and videos is a snap, courtesy of the mini HDMI output as well as USB/AV connectors.
And, should you ever find your battery low, the L610 runs on AA batteries for convenience.
