A superb performer with incredible range, the compact COOLPIX P500 boasts an astounding 36x zoom, a tilting LCD monitor and full HD movie recording. Offering ultra wide-angle to super-telephoto coverage, the impressive 36 x zoom combines with the back illuminated CMOS image sensor to deliver stunning images from anywhere - and in any light.

Creative freedom is further enhanced thanks to the tiltable LCD monitor that makes it easy to take shots from above or below. Advanced exposure modes allow control over key settings, and a dedicated continuous shooting button allows quick switching from single-frame to continuous shooting.

  • High-power zoom: NIKKOR 36x zoom lens with wide-angle to super-telephoto coverage (35 mm equivalent: 22.5-810mm). Offers outstanding precision and sharp resolution.
  • Back illuminated 12.1 megapixel CMOS image sensor increases the amount of light that each pixel receives, improving sensitivity and reducing noise for superb performance in any light.
  • 7x anti-blur automatically counters blurred images in seven different ways. Hybrid VR (Sensor-shift and Electronic Vibration Reduction) reduces the effect of camera shake and can be set simultaneously for additional protection. High ISO (up to 3200) light sensitivity reduces the risk of blurred images with fast-moving subjects or in low-light. Motion detection compensates for camera and subject movement. Best Shot Selector (BSS) automatically selects the sharpest of up to 10 sequential shots. Dedicated light modes: deliver superb results in any light, even without a tripod: Night Portrait mode delivers beautifully detailed night scenes and indoor portraits. Night Landscape mode lets you shoot sharp images at low ISO. HDR*2 backlight mode offers impressive tonal detail in any situation.

  • Side zoom control enables smooth, steady zooming throughout the 36x zoom range when shooting photos or movies.
