Capture Life's Best Moments with Nikon Coolpix P950
The Nikon Coolpix P950 is a 16 Megapixel bridge camera with 4K video recording and an ultra-high power 83x optical zoom. Take this powerful camera with you on your next holiday and you'll be sure to capture all the special memories that will last a lifetime.
16 Megapixel Sensor
The P950 features a 16 Megapixel Backlit CMOS Sensor which captures high quality images at up to 7 frames per second. A quick startup and rapid autofocus with reduced shooting time lag at wide angle focal lengths ensures that you'll always be ready to capture those fleeting moments.
Impressive 83x Zoom Range
The integrated 83x optical zoom has an equivalent 24 to 2000mm focal range. The genuine Nikkor lens features Extra-Low Dispersion glass elements to deliver sharp detail and bright, true-to-life colours.
Versatile Creative Potential
This camera gives you the ability to shoot wide landscapes and sweeping environmental photographs then zoom into the image to capture details at the telephoto range that are beyond visibility to the human eye. The Dynamic Fine Zoom further extends the reach of the lens digitally, allowing for 166x zoom or a 4000mm equivalent view.
The Snap-Back zoom button allows you to rapidly zoom out of an image for easier tracking and zoom back in for final framing.
Impressive 5 Stop Advantage VR
Nikon's excellent Dual Detect Optical Vibration Reduction (VR) system provides a 5-stop shutter speed advantage to image stability to keep your photos and videos sharp even at telephoto lengths. Use of the integrated 0.2-inch electronic viewfinder in conjunction with the ergonomic hand grip and VR further stabilises the camera.
4K Video Recording
When a photograph can't tell the whole story, use the P950's 4K Ultra-High Definition video recording capabilities to better relive those magic memories. The camera also features a time-lapse mode that is capable of creating 4K and Full HD time lapse sequences without post-processing.
Vari-angle Screen + 2.4 Million Dot EVF
A large 3.0-inch flip out screen makes it easy to perfectly compose beautiful storytelling photos. Comfortably explore creative angles in your photos and video with a simple tilt of the screen, and easily compose selfies with the accurate high-resolution 921k-dot resolution LCD. The EVF has been improved over the P900 model, now boasting a 2.4million-dot resolution up from the previous 921k-dot iteration.
Take Your Photography to the Next Level
While the camera can be used with one button point and shoot convenience, advanced shooters can utilise full manual, aperture and shutter priority modes to manipulate exposure and best capture their artistic vision. A number of special filters and effects are built into the camera and can be applied to photos for additional creative versatility.
Highly Connected Camera
Integrated WiFi and NFC make it quick and easy to upload photos wirelessly to compatible smartphones and tablets and to share your adventures to friends and family everywhere. Nikon Snapbridge enables wireless remote operation – take accurately framed photos from dramatic angles and perspectives, and easily take group shots.
Built-in GPS for Easy Geotagging
The camera's built-in GPS quickly and accurately pinpoints and plots location information so you can relive your memories and follow the path of your adventures in a digital photo journal. Points of Interests highlights nearby photo lookouts and landmarks, making the Nikon Coolpix P950 the perfect travel companion.
