After much hesitation I chose this tight coolpix to complete my picture arsenal. Indeed, you can not carry around their DSLR. Suddenly a small robust case, waterproof, dust resistant, lightweight, consitutes a good complement. Still, the fighters devices often do not have the quality of the best compacts (Canon S 120, Olympus Z10, Sony X100, Fuji X-Trans sensor etc.) So what? What to choose? Image quality or use in broader areas? I chose the fighter for his versatile side (I'll take him everywhere not to miss a picture because of the absence of my reflex). The failure of this type of device is the lack of control over the image, no PASM mode, you have to trust to automation. In AW120 automation are managing the sometimes difficult conditions of shooting. One good thing to 1cm macro that opens my horizons! So for skiing, beach, hiking, swimming, boating, car on sand track ... I have a new companion, a simple but powerful image box that also give me the GPS coordinates my image and I can use WIFI. I have long made the mistake of looking for a smaller SLR to complete my range, it is worth taking a very different aircraft, a fighter!
