Extremely long zoom lens, Decent overall image quality for its class, Great shutter speed range
Awful autofocus performance, Very bulky, Small buffer size for continuous shooting

83x zoom lens, Strong image stabilization, Manual controls, Raw imaging and 4K video, EVF and vari-angle LCD, Mic input and accessory shoe, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth,
Autofocus struggles with small and fast-moving subjects, LCD doesn't support touch, Larger and heavier than competitors
The Nikon Coolpix P950 is an appealing camera for wildlife specialists, but most won't need its exceptional zoom power...
Birding, travel (especially cruises, safaris etc), and those situations where you need to shoot for the moon – literally
Landscapes, fast-moving subjects or any situation where critical image quality is more important than zoom range
The only reason to consider buying the Nikon Coolpix P950 is its lens, which – covering an equivalent focal length range of 24-2000mm – is extraordinary. There are very few cameras that can match the P950's versatility, although you'll get better image qu...

Huge zoom, Fully articulating screen, Raw format shooting, 4K video recording
Relatively small sensor, A bit unwieldy, No touchscreen, Single UHS-I card slot
Although it might seem like the P950 represents a fairly gentle evolution of the existing P900 model, some of the upgrades are pretty significant.Being able to shoot 4K video and in Raw format are perhaps the headline features. But improving the electroni...
Abstract: Big superzoom cameras are still referred to as bridge models in many circles. It's a vestigial term carried over from the days when the large body style was aimed at photographers who wanted to move up from a pocket point-and-shoot (which, at the time, ha...
