Amazon.com Product Description
As one of the smaller digital cameras on the market, the Coolpix P2 combines a high-quality optical zoom lens with a range of automatic and preset shooting modes that will satisfy the most discerning of point-and-shoot photographers. With an 5.1-megapixel CCD, and a high quality 3.5x optical zoom Nikkor 3x ED glass lens, plus a 4x digital zoom for a total zoom of 14x, the Coolpix P1 can produce stunning prints up to 16 x 20-inch prints simply and easily.



All controls are designed for ease of use, right next to the large, 2.5-inch LCD display.


A 3x optical zoom makes it easy to get close to the action. View larger.


A hand grip doubles as the battery housing. View larger.
The Coolpix P2 also features built-in WiFi connectivity, which means that you can communicate wirelessly to either your computer or, through the use of an optional Wireless PD-10 Printer Adapter (sold separately), directly to your printer. This unique WiFi image transfer ability not only make it more convenient to off-load your images, it also permits a unique "live slide show" capability that is great for parties, weddings, and any other special occasion.

Weighing a mere 6.4 ounces with the battery and memory card loaded, the Coolpix P2 is truly a "take anywhere" camera. With over 16 automatic and preset shooting modes, you'll always be sure to get the precise shot you're looking for. Best of all, "advanced scene modes" are available for 11 of the 16 presets and allow the user to customize the final image by providing a 3-level selection for enhanced creativity and control.

Not to be outdone, the Coolpix P2 can also record high-quality movies at a rate of up to 30 frames per second. There are a total of seven movie modes to choose from, including six with the capability to record sound as well as a time-lapse mode that enables the user to capture events occurring over an extended period of time.

The camera also features a built-in flash with six modes, and a built-in mic and speaker for including sound in videos and playback from the camera. A large, incredibly bright, 2.5-inch color LCD display and user-friendly interface means that you don't have to take the extra effort to get up to speed with the camera's functionality. Just power it up, and you'll be ready to go in no time.

Other advanced features include Nikon's Exclusive Feature System, which helps turns "pictures" into "photographs." An In-Camera Red-Eye Fix takes "red-eye reduction" a step further by remove red-eye directly in the camera. Face Priority AF automatically focuses on faces for great portraits, and the D-Lighting feature offers in-camera repair of dark images. The included rechargeable battery gives you up to 180 images on a single charge. In short, the Coolpix P2 is perfect for novice users or anyone looking for a point-and-shoot camera that produces sharp, colorful photos with great ease of use. For advanced shooters, the P2 can server as a great "take-anywhere" snapshot camera.

What's in the Box

3 out of 5 stars Wireless is not working.......2007-01-10

Wireless feature is not working or not made simple User Friendly

3 out of 5 stars Average Camera.......2007-01-09

It's an Ok product, but I find the auto focus isn't near as good as my 4.1 MP Kodak. In fact most pics come out blurry. But when it actually captures properly it's crystal clear. Just have to be patient with it. But I'm contemplating going back to Kodak or trying Sony.

5 out of 5 stars Excellent Digital Camera.......2006-11-10

I had reflex Nikon cameras previously and this is my first digital camera, and im not disappointed.

Wonderful quality of the pics, very customizable, lot of options and of course easy to use. Worth the money. 5.1 megapixels are enough and the quality of the photos are superb. The Wi-Fi is a bit more complicated for non-advanced computer users, but works fine if you search through forums and read how to setup.
The construction of the camera is solid, very confortable for the hand, but you must have good pulse with your hand or the pics could be distorted, otherwise is an excellent product.

4 out of 5 stars ok camera.......2006-09-03

i'm in the army and i got this camera as a field camera. i have taken it everywhere with me since then and it has proved to be a very durable camera as well as taking good quality pics and video. I have used it in temps of -30 and 120 and it has worked just fine when other cameras wouldn't. the only reason i'm not giving it five stars is because the wifi feature only works every once in a while. other than that this is a great camera.

1 out of 5 stars I have thought of breaking this thing....numerous times........2006-06-12

I have had several people take my pictures.At first,everything is fine.The pictures are ok.THE NEXT DAY,my face looks like a pile of baby vomit.It is soooo blury.Then it got 2 the point where every picture I took was blury.I tried fixing it online(like on the program for the camera)and it would not work.I HATE THIS CAMERA!!! Not to mention the battery sucks.It lasts maybe 3 1/2 hours.This camera should be $99.00.TRUST ME PEOPLE......IF I COULD RATE THIS THING AT A ZERO I WOULD.IT IS NOT WORTH IT.HOWEVER,a camera i absolutely love is the Sony Cybershot DSCT5.An awesome little camera.
