A refined balance of professional-grade performance and travel-friendly design.
The Nikon Coolpix P950 commands an impressive 83x optical zoom spanning 24-2000mm equivalent, granting unprecedented reach for distant subjects. Advanced Dual Detect Vibration Reduction technology stabilizes handheld shooting, ensuring crisp results even at maximum magnification. The camera features a high-resolution 2.36-megapixel OLED viewfinder for precise composition and a generous 3.2-inch articulating LCD with 921,000 dots for flexible framing. Integrated Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity enable seamless image transfer and intuitive remote operation, streamlining your workflow from capture to sharing.
Product features (Nikon Coolpix P950)
16MP BSI CMOS Sensor and EXPEED Image Processor
Featuring a 16MP 1/2.3″ BSI CMOS sensor, the P950 is capable of realizing high-resolution stills and video along with notable speed and sensitivity. The BSI design of the sensor yields reduced noise levels and greater image clarity when working within the expandable ISO 100-6400 sensitivity range. The sensor and EXPEED processor also enables quick continuous stills shooting up to 7 fps at full resolution to suit working with moving subjects.
In addition to stills, the P950 is also capable of UHD 4K video recording at up to 30 fps and Full HD recording at 60 fps. Time lapse recording is supported, too, with in-camera processing to produce time lapse movies at 25 or 30 fps playback.
83x Optical Zoom NIKKOR Lens
The P950’s key feature is its impressive 83x zoom lens, which provides a huge wide-angle to super telephoto 24-2000mm equivalent focal length range. This range can be effectively doubled to 166x when using Dynamic Fine Zoom for even greater reach to truly isolate those distant subjects. At the wide-angle end, the lens has a bright f/2.8 design to suit working in available light and Dual Detect VR also helps to minimize the appearance of camera shake to suit handheld shooting. Additionally, the lens’s optical design incorporates Super ED glass to suppress a variety of aberrations throughout the zoom range for improved sharpness and clarity.
Body Design
- Bright 2.36m-dot OLED electronic viewfinder is a clear and useful means for eye-level monitoring and benefits working at longer focal lengths by serving as an additional physical point of contact against the camera.
- For image review and menu navigation, a large 3.2″ 921k-dot LCD is featured, and has a vari-angle design to better enable working from high, low, and front-facing angles.
- Built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth work in conjunction with Nikon’s SnapBridge app for wireless file transferring and remote camera control from a linked mobile device.
