New 2.11 Megapixel Digicams From Nikon:The Coolpix 950 and Coolpix 700

Here they are folks, the new Nikon Coolpix cameras!

Seems as if Nikon Japan snuck one over on Nikon USA by releasing the new Coolpix cameras in Asia on the 15th. After many phone calls I have finally been given the go ahead to post my info. I've had the new Coolpix 950 in my hands for the last two weeks and have been "secretly" testing it out. All I can say is - it's awesome!  See my pages:

My friends at Imaging-Resource have posted a "First Look" review of the Coolpix 950 and I agree with just about everything they said.

I'll be posting my own user review soon but would rather base it on a production model than the pre-production unit I have been using for the last couple of weeks. The production firmware is substantially different so in all fairness to Nikon I won't review it until I've had a chance to put the new camera through its paces.
