Nikon Coolpix P7700 Review

The good: A comfortable shooting design and nice photos in bright light number among the strengths of the Nikon Coolpix P7700.

The bad: The P7700's performance is sluggish, and despite being the largest camera in its class it no longer has an optical viewfinder.

The bottom line: It's a solid enthusiast "compact" that will please a lot of shooters, but the Nikon Coolpix P7700 doesn't quite deliver at midrange ISO sensitivities and its image-processing overhead might annoy impatient photographers.
