coolpix P90

[npierce25]

Hello,

Does anyone know anything about the Nikon Coolpix P90??? I am interested in geting a more advanced digitial, but dont think im ready for a slr yet. I would like to have the zoom that it has (24 i think), and taht i can still do small videos on it. i have a 3 year old, so that will be nice.
Thanks for your help

I have the P80 which was last years model and still love using it even though I have a DSLR now. It takes great pictures even on AUTO and has enough settings to keep you busy for a while if you want to learn them. The P90 has a longer zoom but I think image quality is pretty much the same (10mp vs 12mp.) I've played with the P90 in the store and it's almost the same feel to it. If you need to have the latest and greatest, the 90 is nice. If you want to save $100-$200 look for the 80 on Ebay or elsewhere.
