Abstract: The Coolpix A is the latest Nikon digital camera. It packs a sensor the same size as DSLR cameras with a 1.5X crop-factor and matches it with a 18.5mm F/2.8 Nikkor lens which is equivalent to a 28mm wide-angle lens on a full-frame camera. This ...

The Nikon Coolpix A produces the excellent photos you'd expect from a large sensor, and the camera is well built with a streamlined, if somewhat point-and-shoot-like, design
For the price, it needs to deliver a little more, such as a viewfinder, aspects of its performance could be better
If you're very picky about photo quality and prefer autofocus to manual -- but don't care about a viewfinder -- the Nikon Coolpix A is probably worth the money. Otherwise, wait for the price to drop.

Compact design. APS-C image sensor. 28mm wide-angle field of view. Good high ISO performance. Quick to start and shoot. Raw support.
Soft edges at f/2.8 and f/4. Longer shutter lag. Macro mode slows focus. Cannot disable rear LCD. No EVF option. Movie setting is buried in menus
The Nikon Coolpix A is a dedicated wide-angle camera with a big image sensor. Image quality can suffer at the edges of the frame, and the autofocus is a bit slow, but if if you want to pack a lot into your shots, it's worth a look....
Abstract: Nikon Coolpix A review: Nikon surprised everyone launching the Coolpix A, its new premium compact camera which boasts the same sensor as the D7000. But is its image quality worth the Nikon Coolpix A price tag? Find out in our Nikon Coolpix A review video....
Superb image quality, Excellent high ISO noise performance, Manual focus lens ring, Retractable lens with integral cover, Auto ISO control.
28mm f2.8 lens poor for all-round use, Lacks a built-in viewfinder or reasonably priced accessory, Fixed LCD screen, Lacks a dedicated movie record button.
The COOLPIX A pretty much achieves what Nikon no doubt had in mind for it. It is the World's smallest camera with an APS-C format sensor. The image quality and low light high ISO noise performance are nothing short of outstanding for a camera this siz...
Slow focusing speed; Minimum focus distance; No inbuilt Wifi; No direct movie record button; No filter thread
With the Nikon Coolpix A being the first premium compact in Nikon's Coolpix range, there's no predecessor to compare it to. Instead, we're left looking at its rivals to see how it stacks up against the competition. The Nikon Coolpix A's direct compet...
The Nikon Coolpix A is an assured entry into the growing premium compact camera market, boasting an attractive combination of a proven APS-C sensor, quality 28mm optic and a small and compact body. Slightly sluggish auto-focus speed, a "slow" f/2.8 lens...
