Before buying I have read on idealo all available tests, comparisons, etc. to. The journals often evaluate then the hair in microns thickness, which can be found in the soup - you have to know yourself about what you want.
Nickeligkeiten the P500, which had also already P100 - suddenly the full battery was empty after a day without dasss we would have photographed - annoying for my wife ... :-) because she had not turned to the sample before she drove away (the P100 had initially also, then lay down, that is no longer surfaced. Is :-( me unfortunately fallen 2 days Image material into the Nile).
Sure, the herumpendelnde cover, and the fact that they are in front of the lens bucks when turning with lid, well - however, if an automatically closing slat would be possible, I can read in any criticism of the great journalists.
And to have some photos I mean when Wide actually seen quite a slight distortion in the corner (I cut the image into something that I have now considered, as some part you do not need often anyway). One criticism: the available firmware update (actually great that there is the) aufzuspielen simply not succeed. Descriptions of Nikon have to improve here noticeably.
But, and here it comes: In sum, the P500 has convinced me as a strong zoom Bridge because it has features that are not all on the ground, and when shooting the video (including slow motion and speed, just great). I admit something else to Stiftung Warentest, but if you devalues a HD resolution in the video function accordingly when another Full HD has, then I do not go there in conformity with the judgment, even if one more shot.
The image quality is impressive (I had earlier analog SLR-K.), The possibilities great. In practice: The rubber coating and ergonomic to hold is super good - there are from the same manufacturer and the competition much worse (especially in the compact range). Council: In the store, touch, see size live.
All in all, the Nikon has me convinced ahead of the comparable Sony and Lumix - for the 2nd time, since I last year bought the P100 and (to a Canon Ixus 700 - OK, another class, 2J old) from the result, ie sharpness and color, was absolutely thrilled.
And where once I could have simultaneously shoot a photo during video recording - course would have been even more gigantic in the graduation ceremony of our daughter a year ago.
For the money it is highly recommended to me.
