Nikon Coolpix 8700 prices and specs
The Coolpix 8700 was released on Jan 28, 2004 and is sold in USA for $84.49.
The Coolpix 8700 belongs to the category of compact cameras. Its main advantage is a small size: the photographer can take it anywhere with himself easily. The Nikon Coolpix 8700 is equipped with various automatic modes but you won't shoot photos of the same perfect quality in comparison to DSLR cameras.
The Nikon Coolpix 8700 can take images at 8 megapixels max resolution. But for better image quality the more important specification is a sensor size. This model has a 2/3' (8.8 x 6.6 mm) sensor. The camera with such sensor size is the best choice if you want to shoot images of a satisfactory quality but don't want to use large inconvenient DSLR cameras.
The Nikon Coolpix 8700 has max shutter speed of 1/4000 sec. It is an average shutter speed which will be enough for making action images of a very good quality. The Nikon Coolpix 8700 can even shoot videos but the max resolution is not very good - 640 x 480; 30 fps; 35 sec.
The lens is built into the Nikon Coolpix 8700 and you won't be able to switch it. The lens provides good 8x optical zoom.
