Review

September 2008, Nikon COOLPIX P60

by Craig Young

Craig Young from MacLife recently reviewed and tested the Nikon COOLPIX P60. Young called the P60 a straight shooter and a great camera for novice photographers looking to learn more about the functions of a camera as well as for experienced photographers looking to take advantage of the manual controls and other features. The COOLPIX P60 also comes equipped with an electronic viewfinder, 14 unique shooting modes, automatic and program exposure modes, video recording with sound and D-lighting. Young concluded that the P60 was a solid camera pick.
