The Coolpix A is a bit of a Curate's egg: excellent in parts. Consequently, even though we can't complain about the camera's image quality, for its price we can't justify giving it an Editor's Choice nomination. Once you've overcome the counter-intuitive ...
Excellent image quality. Robust shooting design. Very sharp, fixed lens. Accurate automatic white balance every time
Slower than desired autofocus, plus a minimum focusing distance of 50cm. Ring around lens element is only for manual focus, not for adjusting exposure parameters. No external microphone jack
With the same-sized sensor as a digital SLR, it's no surprise that the Coolpix A smashes image quality out of the park, with a sharp lens and excellent optical performance....

Buying Guide Best Nikon Coolpix Nikon has produced a very interesting premium compact camera with the Coolpix A. The APS-C sized sensor proves its worth, capturing lots of detail and keeping noise well within acceptable boundaries. Having a larger than av...
Compact size, Fantastic Quality due to bigger APSC sensor, Sharp Lens, Good grip.
Noticeable Lens distortion in closeups, No zoom, Focus lamp is very strong often disturbing the subject, No touchscreen at this price, Expensive
I really enjoyed my time with Nikon A and would heartily recommend it to all my friends who want to go the DSLR way but will not due to the hefty sizes of DSLR's. The Nikon A solves size issues but brings a few others, namely lens distortion and absolute...
Large 16MP APS-C Sensor, Fast 28mm f/2.8 lens, Good high ISO performance
Slow FPS, No dedicated Video recording button, Rear dial feels underwhelming due to lack of functionality

Priced at an MRP of a whopping Rs 54,950, the Coolpix A does come across as being ridiculously expensive. However, bear in mind that the Coolpix A is targeted at enthusiasts who want DSLR-like controls and imaging quality in a compact form. It's worthy o...
Abstract: The Nikon COOLPIX A is the newest in the range of large sensor, compact cameras with fixed lenses. It comes with a 16MP APS-C sensor, the same size of sensors found in entry to mid-level DSLR cameras. Rumors are that the COOLPIX A's sensor is based on the...

La calidad del sensor es como de una DSLR profesional. Tiene un tamaño muy práctico para llevar a todas partes. La óptica es de lo mejor en el mercado. Puedes ponerle un flash externo o adaptadores inalámbricos
No es de lente intercambiable y el lente que tiene es fijo, es decir, no tiene zoom. El angular del lente es de 28mm, podría ser un poco más abierto para captar más escena
Si eres fotógrafo aficionado o intermedio y buscas una cámara de respaldo que te de calidad similar a una profesional, esta COOLPIX A cumple con el objetivo....
