The Nikon Coolpix P80 is a super zoom digital camera. It has an 18x optical zoom lens. As with many other super zoom models it has a lens that offers plenty of scope for wide angle shots as well as the more obvious telephoto opportunities.
Further attraction is provided by a selection of more advanced features. These include manual exposure, aperture priority, shutter priority and a number of flash settings. The flash unit is powerful and pops up on the top of the Coolpix P80. This can help to reduce the possibility of red eye cropping up in a photo.
As well as the 2.7 inch LCD screen there is also a viewfinder for composing photos.
You are also given plenty of choice when deciding on the aspect rations you would like your photos to have. There are settings for display on a computer screen, widescreen television, 6 x 4 inch prints and even a square photo format.
