Nikon Coolpix P900 Received the 2015 Good Design Gold Award
The COOLPIX P900 is equipped with an 83x optical zoom NIKKOR lens that covers a broad range of focal lengths, from wide-angle 24 mm through super-telephoto 2000 mm (equivalent in 35 mm [135] format). The fast lens, for which a super ED lens element that offers superior compensation for chromatic aberration has been adopted, enables sharp and beautiful rendering even with super-telephoto shooting.
The P900 is also equipped with Dual Detect Optical VR that enables vibration compensation equivalent to a 5.0-stop*1 increase in shutter speed, and it has a shooting time lag of approximately 0.12 s*2.
In addition, it offers a snap-back zoom button that temporarily expands the angle of view, making it easier to relocate a subject temporarily lost with super-telephoto shooting, as well as a side zoom control that offers smoother operation and less camera shake with zooming.
