Nikon Coolpix P7800 12.2 MP Digital Camera

The P7800 offers superior performance in a compact design – perfect for those who are looking to take their photography skills to the next level. Designed to deliver high-quality images, this camera sports a fast 7.1X zoom lens coupled with a back-illuminated CMOS. With its user-friendly controls & built-in viewfinder, the P7800 makes exploring your full photography potential a breeze.

Excellent view from any angle
The P7800 offers you multiple ways to compose your shots. Use its vari-angle monitor to shoot from any angle or capture self-portraits. This large 3-inch screen featuring Clear Color Display and RGBW technology promises true colour rendition in all lighting conditions. For more precise framing, take advantage of the built-in high-definition viewfinder.

Phenomenally fast lens
The P7800’s fast NIKKOR lens delivers spectacular photos and videos. This 7.1X optical zoom lens features a maximum aperture of f/2-4 for high performance in all lighting conditions. Its large aperture effectively reduces camera shake and noise, even at its maximum focal length (200mm in 35mm [135] format equivalent). Crafted with precision using ED glass elements, the lens also provides you with enhanced clarity.

Built for brilliance
Powering the P7800’s impressive performance is a 12.2-megapixel back-illuminated CMOS. With its high sensitivity and Consecutive Shot Combining technology, this advanced image sensor ensures sharp, high-resolution images at night and when shooting at high speeds of up to 8fps.

Power at your fingertips
The P7800’s controls have been designed to follow the natural movement of the fingers. With dials and a quick menu button that can be easily operated with your right hand, you’ll always be ready to capture the moment.
