 Nikon Coolpix 8800 digital camera review : Nikon 8800 carries 8 Megapixels and a high-powered 10x Zoom-Nikkor ED lens with a Vibration Reduction (VR) System - a first for the Coolpix digital camera range. With such quality and performance, the Nikon Coolpix 8800 plans to lead not only the Nikon Coolpix line, but the entire consumer digital camera market, as well. The Nikon Coolpix 8800 is designed for serious photographers who aspire to take the highest quality images. With its 10x zoom, it also targets those who require higher zoom power and those who benefit from its fully loaded yet completely portable design. The Nikon Coolpix 8800 meets their requirements, as well as demands from those who want state-of-the-art image quality.

 The Nikon Coolpix 8800 carries 8.0 effective Megapixels for ultra high-definition photography. Your image clarity is ensured because of the professional-quality, 10x Zoom-Nikkor ED lens. With its 35-350mm focal range (35mm equivalent), the lens incorporates two ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass lens elements to minimize chromatic aberration and produce amazingly sharp and clear images.
Nikon Coolpix 8800 features :
The lens of the Nikon Coolpix 8800 incorporates the Vibration Reduction System - a first for the Nikon Coolpix range. VR automatically detects and compensates for the small camera movements that cause image blur. This offers the user the ability to shoot at shutter speeds up to three stops slower without the risk of camera vibrations blurring your image. Along with Normal Mode, which enables remarkably clear handheld shots, Active Mode helps to ensure a smoother view in shaky conditions, such as shooting from a moving vehicle. Thanks to VR, users can achieve sharp and clear images when shooting in low light or when taking handheld telephoto and macro shots. It even works with the accessory telephoto converter lens at 600mm (35mm equivalent).
The Nikon Coolpix 8800 features many advanced digital controls, such as BSS (Best Shot Selector), AE-BSS (Auto Exposure-Best Shot Selector) mode, Noise Reduction mode, Saturation Control and White Balance Bracketing. Furthermore, the Nikon Coolpix 8800 digital camera has a 5 shot buffer mode.
The Nikon Coolpix 8800 comes loaded with all the essential accessories, such as battery and charger, A/V cable, USB cable, cordless remote controller and the comprehensive PictureProject software package.
