Nikon COOLPIX P510 | 16.1MP CMOS 42x Superzoom Digital Camera

Released in 2012, the P510 combines a 16.1-megapixel backside-illuminated CMOS sensor, an almost ridiculous 42x optical zoom, a proper electronic viewfinder, a tilting high-resolution screen, built-in GPS, Full HD video, and both automatic and manual exposure controls inside one wonderfully adventurous camera.

At its widest setting, the permanently attached NIKKOR lens captures the equivalent of 24mm—wide enough for landscapes, buildings, interiors, friend groups, and the entire story of where you are.

Keep zooming and it reaches the equivalent of 1000mm.

One thousand.

The faraway animal becomes the subject. The performer becomes more than a tiny shape on the stage. The strange thing at the top of the building finally reveals itself. The moon becomes something you can actually compose around.

Then switch to Macro mode and focus approximately one centimeter from the lens.

The biggest view. The farthest detail. The tiniest discovery.

The P510 carries all three inside one camera.

Why You’ll Love It

• Forty-Two Times Closer: A remarkable 24–1000mm-equivalent range covers landscapes, groups, portraits, wildlife, performances, architecture, and extremely faraway details.
• Real 42x Optical Zoom: Bring a distant subject closer through the NIKKOR lens instead of merely enlarging the center of a finished photograph.
• An Entire Camera Bag in One Camera: One permanently attached lens replaces the decisions, weight, and lens changes of a multi-lens travel kit.
• Four ED Glass Elements: Nikon built specialized optical glass into the enormous zoom to help control color fringing and preserve detail.
• Easy Today, More Control Tomorrow: Begin in Auto or Scene Auto Selector, then explore Program, Aperture Priority, Shutter Priority, and full Manual exposure.
• Professionally Restored and Ready: Every P510 is individually inspected, tested, cleaned, and prepared by the Cute Camera Co. team.
