While it didn't fare very well in low light, we're still impressed with the Nikon P520 on the whole. Just as impressed, in fact, as we were with the earlier P510. For habitual bright-light shooters-the sort who spend their weekends shooting t-ball games and soccer practices-the P520 is an extremely...

I haven't had the camera for long enough -- and didn't go on the great trip yet -- so I reserve my judgement about the battery life and durability until later in the summer. It might just be the love affair everyone has when they buy a new gadget, but I think that my thoughts on the Nikon...

It was love at first sight! Totally smitten! Pulled the P520 out of its unassuming box and there it was: a gleaming vision in deep cherry red. At the outset, the red base colour and overlaid control ID texts picked out in white made everything abundantly clear … much better than the usual white text...

I bought this to replace a previous Fuji Film point & shoot camera that died. I'm still learning many of the features on this camera. I took it out with me in the kayak today and got some fabulous pictures of a loon nesting. I had to Zoom in quite a ways to get some close ups of her.

Awsesome Pictures; Easy to use; Half To Cost Of Dslr; Light Weight

At 42x optical zoom, the Nikon Coolpix P520 easily takes the cake for farthest zoom among the models we evaluated. That's what you're paying for when you buy this camera. Don't get us wrong; this is an excellent feature, especially when coupled with an 18.1 megapixel resolution and built-in...

The 42x optical zoom with auto stabilization is very impressive

Most of the zoom is useless for 3D photos; Also, this camera can only take 3D still shots by panning the camera sideways to take two shots and combine them, which means moving objects can't be properly captured

Nikon has done a great job with ultra zoom cameras in the past, and the Coolpix P520 is another very strong camera.

Camera is large and bulky. The shutter speed is very slow resulting in blurred pictures most of the time. Better off with a digital SLR since this camera is so large and bulky. [...

Took this camera to Europe and it did an awesome job. Took pictures in low light in cathedrals and at night and all turned out well. Daytime pictures could be controlled with manual exposures, etc. The close ups were sharp and clear despite some shakiness on my part.

A wonderful camera does all it said it would do. User friendly as well. Just used it at Niagara Falls, important family time worked great both on mov and j pegs. The zoom is really great! I expect to use it a lot. thank you for a great product!

Great Product at a great price. Would highly recommend additional lens however camera works great and meets all expectations.

Easy to Use; Large Clear LCD; Fast Shutter Speed; Great Resolution; Good in Low Light; Small/Compact; Good Battery Life
