Megapixel Review: Nikon Coolpix P5100

Nikon Coolpix P5100 Digital CameraMegapixel has a review of the Nikon Coolpix P5100 and writes:

Offering 12.1 megapixels in a small package that easily slides into a coat pocket, the Nikon Coolpix P5100 also offers a combination of advanced shooting modes and scene modes, integrates the Vibration Reduction (VR) system that dampens the effect of camera shake in the lens itself, and provides both a 2.5-inch LCD monitor and an optical viewfinder. …

With the P5100 set to the Playback mode, the Command Dial can be used to review images in a format called Thumbnail Wheel Playback (see at right). Moreover, when the Fn button is used in conjunction with the Command dial, captured images can be seen in a calendar format that shows 1 month at a time and the first image captured on particular dates, or simply listed by date. …

Although very compact, the Coolpix P5100 has a number of external controls. These are well positioned, and very useable. One control, however, the Multi-selector, may be a touch too small to use comfortably by everyone. The left direction, which controls the Self-timer as well, is particularly tight to the edge of the monitor, and is not easily accessed reliably.
