IN-DEPTH review of the Nikon Coolpix 4800 digital camera, with actual sample images, and a detailed data sheet.
An ideal camera for beginners. The internal memory and the simple functions are ideal for those who have not used a digital before
Nikon's latest compact digital cameras, the 4-Megapixel/8.3x Zoom Coolpix 4800 and the 5-Megapixel/3x Zoom Coolpix 5100, are now available in Australian stores.
Announced in September 2004, the Coolpix 4800 represents the latest in a long line of Nikon compact cameras that stretches all the way back to the late 1990's, and is Nikon's first budget 'super zoom' camera. Although it sits in the same range as the diminutive Coolpix 5200 and 4200 and has similar styling, the Coolpix 4800 is a considerably larger and more powerful camera - though still a lot smaller than most other super zoom cameras. Features of note include an 8.3x (36-300mm equiv.) ED zoom lens, electronic viewfinder (EVF), 11 scene modes, fast startup and operation and 640x480 pixel (VGA) movies at 15fps. Here's a quick rundown of the 4800's main selling points:
Features & Controls The Coolpix 4800 is equipped with a Nikkor ED (Extra-low Dispersion) 8.3x optical zoom lens, with a 36 - 300mm (in 35mm equivalent) focal length coverage. The maximum aperture is F2.7 (Wide) - 4.4 (Telephoto.) The lens retracts when the camera is powered-down and is protected

Nikon has squeezed an 8x optical zoom into an affordable mid-range camera, but have too many compromises had to be made.
