When I held the camera for the first time in my hand, I was already excited - from the appearance and good workmanship. And it is very easy to handle and non-slip. Designed for right-handers, provides the "handle" a rubber coating and even on the back is still a rubber pad for the thumb stored processed. With 576 g it might is no lightweight, but for me, this represents no disadvantage.
The package includes: camera, lens protection, hand strap, rechargeable battery, USB charging cable with power plug adapter and a short manual. For more details on the operation and the various functions I absolutely recommend the manual on the Internet downloading.
So that nothing goes wrong: previously an SD card (SDHC 10 Class 32GB - smaller SD cards are not really suitable for movies, photos, however, no problem at all - we even took pictures with a normal 2GB SD card - it is to see no difference.). Should it be forgotten, the camera remembers itself to appeal a memory card.
The first store has lasted 2.5 hours, and after now estimated 3 hours Duration of operation (photos, film, exploring the camera), the battery level has not changed. That is enormous.
That such a camera features such as night mode, portrait, landscape, etc. brings, I put in this price range ahead (because that has even my old camera Casio Exilim - 10 megapixel, 32x zoom). This camera has a variety of other modes, such as black / white, painting, distortion. Super We find, moreover, that we can edit the pictures afterwards in the camera (eg in sw colorful change or vice versa, pure magic asterisks, etc.). Here you can let your creativity run wild.
My favorite features are now:
a) Automatic: - actually makes everything alone (sharpness, brightness), even with gray skies beautifully lit shots, even when backlit
b) Scene Auto Selector: Again, it needs no further adjustment - have you ever your television photographed without reflections and extremely bright spots? I not yet - but now with the Coolpix P610 and then it looks like I have a picture on the wall, no TV
c) macro function: how close I can zoom back things and how clear this is the motive, is outstanding - the smallest details are / remain visible, nothing is blurred, the colors are intense and of course, I can only compare it with a HD picture
The display is very clear to my mind u.scharf. It is tilting and turning, so I can turn it on the back of the camera and so the appearance of a normal digital camera have, I look at the pictures. Speaking of look at pictures: I was quite surprised - through the viewfinder I can get my me so far also view the pictures taken.
Hand-held shooting, so really only one hand so frankly, succeed very well. Even moving images (for us it was the jumping dog) provide no evidence of distortion, the recordings - and I can only repeat - are very clear. Unbelievable. And by the integrated image stabilizer I have actually not sure that my hand is sooo quiet, I may actually wiggle a little and remains the image - na? - Correctly, clear and clean.
Operation is intuitive - I had previously not so much studied the manual, but I've searched for a motive and this tested with all photo functions to see for myself the differences and internalize the practice immediately. Theory is just theory only. The camera even reminds, turn on the flash when it requires the appropriate function.
About the display shows how many photos can still be shot and what film length is still possible (ie when the memory is full) - we find super.
And finally I can say that the "play" of the SDHC worked perfectly on a Blu-Ray player. The recordings appeared on the 55Zoll TVs just clear as on the camera screen, the image quality was excellent. I'm still quite incredulous.
Conclusion: the intuitive operation, the simple handling, this compact digital camera not only for professionals but also for "would-Fotografierer / filmmakers" like me. The KreativiƤt be here actually has no limits. The camera convinces everybody!
