Nikon COOLPIX L830 review The Nikon Coolpix L830 represents the new pinnacle of Nikon’s budget-conscious, easy to use Coolpix L-series. Considering its relatively attractive price of £229.99 / $299.95 / €279, you get a lot of bang for your buck. Headline specs are its 34x zoom lens, giving a very useful focal length range of 22.5-765mm (in 35mm camera terms). To ensure sharp shots at such long focal lengths, the L830 also utilises Nikon’s Hybrid Vibration Reduction system. At the heart of the camera is a 16.0-megapixel CMOS sensor capable of a maximum ISO3200 sensitivity and Full HD video capture. Externally the most notable new feature is a high-resolution, 921k-dot monitor which can be tilted up and down. The Nikon Coolpix L830 also follows the L-series trend of being powered by AA batteries. The Nikon COOLPIX L830 is a budget bridge super-zoom. Its DSLR-styled body is light and compact - a step down in scale from the mid and higher end P-range super-zooms. Launched in Janua...
