Nikon Coolpix P90 Boasts Zoom and Speed

p901 Nikon Coolpix P90 Boasts Zoom and Speed

If you’re thinking of jumping from compact digital cameras to DSLRs, perhaps you should wait until March, when Nikon launches the Coolpix P90. The 12.1-megapixel camera pairs a 24x zoom lens with 4-way image stabilization, and it can snap continuous photos at 15 frames per second. Other features include a 3-inch tiltable viewscreen and a “best shot selector” that takes up to 10 frames and keeps the sharpest-looking one. There’s 6400 ISO, but only at the camera’s 3-megapixel setting. Still, that’s  a pretty impressive package for $400, which is not much more expensive than your high-end digicams. [via DVice]
