Nikon Coolpix P6000 13.5MP Camera Reports

This is a real quality camera for a point and shoot. It features an exceptionally sharp lens (Nikon quality is why you buy this camera). The buttons and settings are relatively easy to master, though like all digital cameras, a read of the manual and an occasional look-up afterwards are required to really master its use. The 4x zoom is nice for general photography, though limited if you need to bring distant subjects in close. I haven’t given it a real work-out, but the battery seems to have plenty of capacity for a normal day’s use. I don’t like the fact that the only included charging method is via a 110v cord that connects to the camera, and I bought spare batteries and an external charger. Thus far I have never had to go to a 2nd battery, however. At least the dedicated batteries are relatively cheap.
Having said all that, I bought this camera strictly to use for digiscoping (taking pictures through a spotting scope). For that purpose it is the best camera I have ever had, and the first one I am really satisfied with. For this purpose you will probably need the Nikon UR-E21 adapter ring. If this camera suits your needs it is definitely worth the relatively high price.
