Nikon Coolpix P5100

By Arlene Whiting

Nikons flagship compact camera has manual exposure controls in a small, magnesium alloy body. The P5100 has updates from the previous P5000 in the areas of faster hardware-based face-detection, allowing more faces to be identified, continuous flash shooting mode, distortion control, improved user interface, slightly wider angle (35mm vs. 36mm), fractionally shorter battery life, 1:1 aspect shooting ratio mode and can add black borders to images.

Some of the key features to the P5100 are: 12 megapixel, 1/1.8-inch CCD, 3.5x Zoom-Nikkor lens, Lens shift VR, ISO 64-1600, BSS (Best Shot Selector), 16 scene modes, Macro shooting, SDHC card compatibility, 52 MB of internal memory, In-Camera RedEye fix and 2.5-in wide viewing angle with anti-reflection coating.
