The versatile Nikon P500 digital camera gives your photography new dimensions, ranging from shooting spectacular landscapes to stunning close-ups.

With a 12 megapixel resolution, the Nikon Coolpix P500 lets you capture those special moments with quality and clarity, perfect for blowing up to A3 size without any loss of clarity.

The incredible 36x zoom NIKKOR lens, with 22.5 mm wide angle to 810 mm super telephoto focal range, offers outstanding compositional freedom and features Extra-low Dispersion (ED) lens glass to ensure pin-sharp results.

You can shoot full 1080p HD movies in stereo sound, while using the zoom and auto-focus, with great results from a distance.

Your creativity is also enhanced by the Nikon Coolpix P500's 3 inch high-res display that can be tilted as much as 90 degrees. Optical VR (Vibration Reduction) and 7-way image stabilisation cut out handshake and low-light blurring.

The Nikon P500 lets you decide how much control you want to suit each occasion – Scene Auto selector and Nikon's Smart Portrait system take the hard work out of taking great pictures by choosing the best settings for you.

The Nikon Coolpix P500's continuous shooting mode lets you shoot a 5 shots at 8fps in full resolution or 54 lower resolution shots at 120fps.

      Comments about Nikon Coolpix P500 12 Megapixel Digital Camera - Black:

      I've got to say as my 1st 'bridge' camera im already used to most of the features on this as there not complicated, there straight forward and the menu gets you to where you want quick. obviously this isnt the worlds best camera but for the price who can complain? the only problems i find are the zoom noise but i havent found myself using video in a quiet place. the main big plus for this is the zoom, you realy dont realise untill you see it in person but i love it and i will be making this my main camera for a long time.

          Memory card

          See below for a guide to how many pictures a 1GB memory card can hold. This is based on average compression levels used and can vary from camera to camera.
