Pros: Lightweight, wide travel, electronic viewfinder, articulated display, color rendering, great possibilities of settings almost like a high-end SLR, excellent white balance, used price

Cons: Autofocus not always precise, low lens aperture, battery consumption, poor quality at long excursions, iso hold, no raw

Opinion: In proportion to the price and the tiny sensor makes excellent photos, especially during the day at low iso, the classic holiday machine ... or I use it to do street, also excellent for those who want to start understanding something more 'serious' than smartphones and compacts but spending little. Good lens even within the limits of an image that changes little in the depth' to apertures more open or more closed, decent stabilization, excellent colors especially in landscapes or photos type urbex, excellent light meter and good white balance, unfortunately as soon as the light goes down begin the pains ... ISO tightness is not his forte. Another sore point is the battery, unfortunately the electronic viewfinder and the electrically controlled excursion of the lens are paid .. It does not go beyond 200 shots and in any case even without using it the original Nikon battery tends to discharge anyway. Anyway overall great machine, rating 8.

Pros: Lightweight and compact, wide zoom range, suitable for all kinds of photography. Zoom handy and versatile, large manual control.

Cons: Sharpness often poor, slow autofocus that sometimes stops the machine (maybe it just happens to mine but I do not think), only jpeg. The meter tends to overexpose, I always use at least 1.3 stop less than the default of the machine. ISO truly devastating: you can rarely go above 400. Automatic white balance grossly wrong. Shutter speed not less than 8 "and not more than 1/1500. The depth of field does not go beyond the f / 8 not allowing panning or other effects. Depth of field virtually identical f/3.4 eaf / 8.

Opinion: I use it for nature photography, especially birds, and I must say that autofocus is far too slow to allow decent shots, to get good results it takes a lot of experience and patience. I happened repeatedly that, unable to focus properly, the machine were to stop completely. The ISO prevelamente I use are 160, 200 and 400, plus it's really hard to get something. Manual focus very tricky to use but on shutter speed and aperture controls very easy to handle. In the field of macro instead you can get remarkable results since the P500 can focus even from a short distance and you get a good focus.

Pros: Extremely high range of equivalent focuses, a very useful digital viewfinder with compact displays, weight and dimensions, comfortable and bright orientable display, priority or manual shooting modes such as large, cost-reduced, especially for use, optical quality All in all passable.

Cons: Jpg only; Zoom difficult to handle, impossible to obtain a reduced depth of field due to the tiny sensor; Materials and construction very cheap; Much noise over iso 800. Ineffective autofocus in video mode and inefficient in general. RIDICLE battery life.

Opinion: A decent, cheap (new cost 100 euros less than a poor Canon canvas) toy, very useful to begin to understand the photography and its needs. He soon outlines his limits, urging the newbie to point toward the reflex. The very high focal range allows, with a good tripod, to bring home discrete facial (static) shots. Unmanaged zoom especially in street-tip-type situations: above 300mm equivalent focal length. It becomes difficult to shoot freehand (tiny body and low weight do not help), and after a little zoom, driven by uncomfortable cursors, goes mad and does not stop, at least on my specimen. Poor quality of materials: on my specimen, the shutter button has oxidized and corroded, and the cap of the lens has virtually dissolved by coming in contact with a normal anti-repellent repellent. Still drinking drinking to get close to photography, used is nothing. Good also as a backup for a more experienced hairdoer, or for someone like meBought an old reflex that did not make videos. The macro is great, as with all the compact, provided they do not have great pretensions.
