The main characteristics are given here, it is too long to list all the characteristics. If you are interested, you can find the rest of the characteristics on the Internet.

I am not a professional photographer and for me these characteristics are very good. Landscapes, portraits, macro photography – it all shoots with a bang! It shoots as well as mirrors, as for me.

Battery.

Battery capacity: 350 photos.

The battery lasts for a whole day!

Price: 18,000 rubles (bought in 2015). The price is fully justified.



2. The appearance of Nikon Coolpix P7800.

Dimensions: 119x78x50 mm.

Its most important advantage over DSLRs is its compactness. Fits in any bag, lightweight, fits comfortably in your hand, one hand! For those who like to travel – the best option!

Design.

The appearance of the camera brings aesthetic pleasure: pleasant to the touch materials, convenient location of buttons and controls. It looks restrained and concise.



3. Nikon Coolpix P7800 shooting modes and their use.

The camera provides a variety of shooting modes:

Auto,
Plot (portrait, landscape, animals and more),
Special effects (monochrome, sepia, soft and others),
Program auto mode,
Auto with shutter speed priority,
Auto with aperture priority,
Manual: you can manually adjust the exposure, aperture and other characteristics (there are special exposure and aperture correction discs),

4. Impressions from using Nikon Coolpix P7800.

I bought it in order to take good and high-quality travel photos. In 2 years of use, it has fully met all my expectations: great pictures, high autonomy, very compact. When traveling, foreigners often wondered what kind of device it was and wanted the same one for themselves. In order for the camera not to be scratched in the bag and to be saved from the consequences of falls, I immediately bought a Riva Case 7080 case. It is also very convenient and compact.



5. Conclusions.

My rating is definitely 5. The best compact camera for travelers and not only. Are you in doubt whether to buy or not? Buy without hesitation!
