Nikon Coolpix P90 Videos Reviews

Index of Nikon Coolpix P90 Expert Reviews

• Trusted Reviews—“The Nikon Coolpix P90 is a superb camera, certainly one of the best super-zoom bridge cameras on the market, with plenty to appeal to the enthusiast while still retaining some ease of use for the novice. It is attractively and sensibly designed, extremely well made, performs well and produces excellent image quality. It may be relatively expensive, but you certainly get a lot for your money.”

• Steve’s Digicams—“If you are looking for the biggest zoom possible without the expense of a dSLR and large lenses, look no further. With a 24x optical zoom and Optical VR stabilization, this is the way to go. Another feature you will not see on too many other cameras is the tilting screen, making it easier to shoot in some difficult situations.”

• DigiCamReview—“The screen quality appears pixelated, and does not seem to have accurate color. Using the full optical zoom was problematic, with images overexposed, out of focus, and blurry unless you are shooting in perfect conditions. There are quite a lot of positives, such as manual controls, lots of options, exposure bracketing, image stabilisation, 1cm macro mode etc, but all of this seems to be heavily outweighed by the poor image quality”

• Photo Review—“Performance-wise, the review camera was something of a ‘curate’s egg’ (parts of it were excellent). Colour accuracy was good in our Imatest tests and saturation was restrained for a small-sensor digicam, although reds were slightly boosted and skin hues a little off-the-mark. Metering was also generally good, although exposures tended to favour shadow detail over highlights and bright areas were frequently blow-out in outdoor shots.”
• infoSync World—”Pros: Great overall image performance. Big zoom. Wide-angle lens crammed more action into shots. Cons: Feels cheap. Limited external controls and features. Terrible menu system. “
• Photoxels—“The Nikon Coolpix P90 strikes a good balance between ease of use and richness of features: it is point-and-shoot easy to use and also packed-full of practical features the beginner amateur photographers will want to have as they learn about digital photography.”
• DPInterface.com—”Image quality is the final blow to the Nikon Coolpix P90. Image quality isn’t good at all. While high levels of lens distortion are expected for zoom lenses that cover such a large range, prominent edge softness in photos and visible noise at low ISO speeds are inexcusable. Chromatic aberration is noticeable as well and the camera doesn’t perform well in low-light (in terms of image quality and focusing speeds at telephoto).”
• PhotographyBLOG—”The Nikon Coolpix P90 is still worthy of a Recommended award, mainly thanks to its intuitive design and welcoming ease-of-use, especially for beginners, but be aware that there are quite a few better alternatives available for your money.”
• cnet reviews—”The good: Relatively speedy; tiltable LCD; two custom settings slots on mode dial. The bad: Subpar photo quality; poor battery life. The bottom line: While the Nikon Coolpix P90 brings its performance up to speed with the rest of its class, it now falls behind in photo quality.”
• Digital Trends—”After checking reputable online sites for prices, we found the P90 for around $360, which on the face of it doesn’t seem too bad. But – and it’s a big but – the Sony DSC-HX1 goes for $50 more. This is the best Ulysses Grant you’ll ever spend, even though the zoom is less powerful (see our review here for the details). The Sony’s Sweep Panorama, 10 fps shooting and 1080P put it way ahead of this Coolpix. Then again, there may be people who don’t care one whit about video. For them, the Coolpix P90 will zoom to practically the ends of the Earth, and capture quality photographs. Just keep the ISO low and try the vivid option.”
• ePHOTOzine—”I’ve kept the review of the P80 open while I did this so I can compare not only what it did in the test but also what I said about it to see if I was repeating myself. I think the three major changes of zoom, resolution and articulated screen are good and the image stabilising options have been increased with the motion detection system.”
• Pocket-lint—”We got some great results without too much tinkering at the wider ends of the lens, with good sharp images and natural colour reproduction. The tilting screen is highly effective making it possible to grab great perspective shots without the normal hassle. You’ll also find many of your normal compact camera niceties here, like blink detection and face auto focus. “
• CameraLabs—”The build quality is excellent, and in our view, the P90’s balance in your hands and surface finish are the best of the current crop. There’s also some nice features including time-lapse movies, interval shooting and a high-speed continuous option. Rounding off the feature-set are up-to-date gadgets like scene, smile and even blink recognition.”
• Register Hardware—”In general, the P90’s handling was somewhat disappointing. It’s comfortable to hold with a nice rubberized grip and a thumb rest but, oh dear, Nikon definitely needs to work on the rest of the user interface.”
• CNET UK—”The Nikon Coolpix P90 is a typical superzoom: fantastic specifications, but riddled with operational limitations and compromises that don’t really become obvious until you’ve used it for a while. It’s vastly more sophisticated than the average compact, but don’t buy it as a substitute for a dSLR, because you’ll be disappointed. “
• Cameras.co.uk—”The Nikon Coolpix P90 offers a cheaper option to the top of the range Canon and Sony models. It does most things well, takes a good quality photo and has an impressive set of features.”
• About.com—”However, the P90’s image quality just isn’t as good as I’d like to see. It’s a nice camera, but it just doesn’t seem to have a good classification: It’s too expensive for a point and shoot, and it doesn’t offer the image quality you’d want in a DSLR.”
• ImagingResource—”Long zooms are making a comeback with new models from nearly every major manufacturer this year, some even breaking the 20x barrier. Kodak, Pentax, and Nikon have broken out with 24x lenses, Nikon’s being the Coolpix P90. Its small, tight build feels good and high quality, with a good grip and simple controls. But its the lens, with its 26-624mm zoom range that really makes using the Nikon P90 so fun. We also liked the P90’s automatic switching to Macro mode.”
• DigitalCameraInfo—”The Nikon Coolpix P90 is a good camera, with a reasonable price point for an ultrazoom camera. However, it comes into a market that is rife with competition, and doesn’t fare well by comparison. When we subjected it to our battery of tests, we were happy with color accuracy and image noise, but the lens tended to distort images heavily, and the image stabilization system wasn’t up to scratch. One of the great disappointments of this camera is its standard definition video mode, made even less satisfying by its lack of key controls.”
• Neocamera—”It is fun to have a stabilized wide-angle 24X optical zoom lens. The P90 is about freedom to frame anything from far away and have creative control on how to expose it. As such, the P90 definitely lives to its potential.”
