It pairs a 16MP 1/2.3-inch BSI CMOS sensor with an electronic viewfinder and a vari-angle screen, making it an all-in-one camera for travel, wildlife and long-reach shooting.Build & handling Type Bridge camera, fixed (non-interchangeable) lens Sensor 16MP 1/2.3-inch BSI CMOS Built-in lens 24-1440mm equivalent, 60x optical zoom, f/3.3-6.5 Image stabilisation Optical (lens-shift) VR ISO range ISO 100-1600, expandable to 6400 Video Full HD 1080p Viewfinder Electronic viewfinder (EVF) Screen 3-inch vari-angle LCD, 921k dots Weight Approx 565g including battery and card Works with Fixed 24-1440mm lens is built in and cannot be removed or swapped for other lenses Accepts SD, SDHC and SDXC memory cards Built-in Wi-Fi for wireless transfer and remote control from a smartphone Uses a Nikon rechargeable Li-ion battery Best forThe P600 is built around reach: its 60x zoom sweeps from a useful 24mm wide angle to a 1440mm equivalent telephoto, so a single camera can cover landscapes, holidays and distant subjects without ever swapping a lens. That flexibility is the whole appeal for casual and enthusiast shooters who want one grab-and-go body. It is worth being candid about the trade-offs, though. Like all superzoom bridge cameras it uses a small 1/2.3-inch sensor, so image quality and low-light performance sit below what larger-sensor cameras deliver, and the lens is fixed rather than interchangeable.Frequently asked questionsHow far does the zoom actually reach?The lens covers a 24-1440mm equivalent range, which is a 60x optical zoom from a single fixed lens, plus a wide 24mm setting for landscapes and interiors.Can I change the lens?No. The P600 is a bridge camera with a fixed, non-interchangeable lens, so the built-in 60x zoom is the only optic it uses.Does it have a viewfinder as well as a screen?Yes. It has an electronic viewfinder for eye-level shooting and a 3-inch vari-angle LCD that flips out and tilts.Is it good in low light?It has optical VR stabilisation and an ISO range up to 6400, but the small 1/2.3-inch sensor means low-light image quality is more limited than on larger-sensor cameras.
