Nikon COOLPIX P7000 Pro Reviews

DigitalCameraReview‘s review Edit Like Unlike

If you're in the market for a high-end compact and are wedded to either the Canon or Nikon brand, you can safely go with the product of your choice and know the other guy isn't going to outshoot you because of hardware. And if you're not brand oriented and just want to get the best images out of this class of camera, you can go either way and if the images aren't great it's not the camera's fault. The P7000 joins the G11/G12 on my best compact digital image list, and that's pretty select company.

Still, for what's effectively a first generation camera, the P7000 is a good entry and still a reliable option. If you're a Nikon loyalist, this is certainly your ideal compact camera. But if it's strictly a luxury or you're upgrading from an earlier camera in a similar class, you may want to see what the P7000's sequel brings.

High image quality and lots of impressive features, but painfully slow menus are enough to put us off

The Nikon Coolpix P7000 runs neck-and-neck with the Canon PowerShot G12 at the front of the pack when judged on manual controls and image quality. For most users, though, the G12's entertaining scene modes, better video performance, and impressive ease of use will give it a slight edge. The Nikon Coolpix P7000 is sure to please more-seasoned, DSLR-savvy shooters who know how to handle it.

The Nikon Coolpix P7000 is a camera that combines great image quality, extensive manual controls, and a 7.1X optical zoom lens.

The Imaging Resource‘s review Edit Like Unlike

It's easy to like the Nikon P7000--until you try to adjust something, then you want to find the camera processor's Turbo button to speed things up. The Nikon P7000's image quality is good, its design is good, but its slow interface and questionable autofocus performance keeps it from being great. We think it's possible to use and love the Nikon P7000 for its image quality alone, but we'd be remiss if we didn't point out its considerable shortcomings in the speed department. If you like to take your time with your photos, and don't mind the camera taking its time as well, you'll be quite happy with the Nikon P7000.

With the CoolPix P7000 Nikon returns to the very top end of the compact camera market. It's an impressive camera, with good build quality, a wide range of features and a lot of creative versatility. Performance could be a little better, but there's nothing wrong with the results. It is a viable and slightly cheaper alternative to the G12 and LX5.

Despite the problems I’ve ran into with it, the P7000 is a good camera. I’ve been using it since October (the recent Multi-Tool gift guide was shot with it exclusively). I have no reservations recommending the P7000 to any level of user, and while it does need some help from a firmware upgrade, the potential is there for it to be a truly great camera. Truth be told, I like this camera so much I bought one for my own personal use.

There's a huge amount to love about the P7000. It's small, it's tough, the lens is cracking and it takes great pictures. The video mode might not be too much to write home about but at least it's HD.

DP Review‘s review Edit Like Unlike

Nikon's engineers have clearly been looking to Canon's G-series for inspiration, and the P7000's boxy build, and plethora of external controls put it closer to the Powershot G12 than any previous P-series compact. Ultimately, the P7000's excellent image quality, and functional ergonomics are let down by poor operational speed and lack of responsiveness.

If a camera could be judged on image quality alone, the COOLPIX P7000 Nikon would be a sure-fire winner. Images are generally detailed, contrasty and colourful. The performance at high ISO settings is pretty decent for a camera of this type too.

Nikon intended the P7000 to be its finest achievement to date in the COOLPIX range and the sheer wealth of easily accessed manual controls, allied to improved low light imagery and a host of practical extras, make this a must for the semi-pro market.

The Nikon Coolpix P7000 is something of a flawed gem. While we love the handling, with its wealth of clever external controls, and the excellent image quality, the painfully slow RAW processing speeds are a real let-down for a camera that purports to offer a DSLR-experience.

Pocket-lint‘s review Edit Like Unlike

The P7000 is a great high-end compact that produces exceptional images. However, despite this trump card the slow RAW file write speed and subtle menu lag can prove a nuisance. The exposure compensation dial is slightly mis-placed next to the shutter, though the design is otherwise excellent thanks to all the controls being readily available. Brush these fairly small issues aside and the overall handling, design and feature set are superb. Easily up there with the best available high-spec compacts to market, you’d be hard pressed to do much better than bag yourself a P7000.
