Nikon Coolpix P7100 Review At Imaging Resource
"There are upgrades and there are updates, and the Nikon P7100 seems more like a much-needed update to a camera that was great, but not quite up to its full potential. The P7100 delivers greater speed where it's needed, and the optical and image quality are about where you'd expect given the high quality of its predecessor." |

Nikon Coolpix P7100 review By Ilse Jurriën

Have you ever had one of those days when you went out to shoot and nothing looked good? by Kirk Tuck (Great read - V1 appears later in the post)
"I think I've come to grips with why I love the Nikon V1 so much. When I use it I preset it to "A" and leave the aperture set at the widest setting. I put the camera into the auto ISO 100-800 setting. AWB. And the only thing I manipulate is the +/- exposure compensation. It's really become my ultimate "point and shoot" camera and I don't have to think when I use it." |

Nikon D4 - First impressions and thoughts By John Cazolis
"There is no question that at base ISO and up to about 5000 ISO the D4 performs superbly, but from 6400 ISO onwards the files from the pre-production D4 camera are not what i was expecting - much better than the D3/D700 but not noticeably better from the D3s." |
Micro Nikkor AF-S DX 40mm f/2.8 G - Review / Test Report at Photozone
"The rubberized focus ring is slightly damped and operates reasonably smoothly. Unfortunately the focus ring shows an issue that we have seen in several recent AF-S lenses: there's a little play when changing the focus direction in manual focus mode, that can be annoying during focus fine tuning (for example in magnified Live View mode)." |
