Appropriate for a Coolpix P7700, or overkill?

I am not sure what you mean by overkill ... after checking and double-checking the width of the strap where it attaches to the camera (mine was a Coolpix 820) I ordered it and was able to attach it to my camera. the strap is so much better than the thin, cheap-looking strap that came with the camera, it was well worth it. Just double-check the width your camera will accept where it attaches to the body of the camera. Best wishes

Sorry but I don't think it will fit through the holes they are to small for this

yeah overkill I am using it on my D800 with a 24 to 70 zoom. I never use it for my coolpix A

The Nikon P 7000 is a wonderful little pro camera, with an hight quality optic system, and take great HD movies too. Perfect for travel, because you portability.

Thank you for your helpful response. I plan on going ahead and purchasing the camera.

i had the same dilemma and opted for the p7000. I'm waiting for mine to arrive from amazon.

I'm certain that both above mentioned cameras produce excellent images. They both have high resolution 3 inch screens, but to say P7000's images are better because they look better on the camera's LCD screen is akin to saying one blonde looks better than the other one from 100 yards out. You can't really make a meaningful comparison until you've uploaded the files to the computer and view them under magnification.

Bernard is correct I think. Any modern camera that meters through the lens *should* be fine but you may not like the results and may need to adjust a bit.

Although many camera gear review sites give the edge to G12 over P7000, the difference is just that, a small edge, even with P7000's known flaws regarding slow RAW write times and focusing issues. Since I'm a Nikon DSLR user, I can use my Nikon Flash on P7000 to give me more flexibility in using this camera. Otherwise, I would have gone with G12 as I think Canon does P&S cameras better than just about everybody else. However, that was the thought process when the camera prices were comparable before the huge price drop on P7000 AND the necessary firmware update (version 1.2) from Nikon. At this price ($229) along with firmware update, it's almost a no-brainer in picking P7000 over G12. For the price of P&S slightly above the economy model, you are getting a fantastic, albeit previously flawed, high-end P&S camera.

Keep the ISO to 400 or below, 800 max and you will be fine for detailed images. You can push it a little higher if you don't plan to blow the pictures up really large. Yes, its about 1-2 stops worse than other cameras, but the camera features and the 16-50 f/2.8 kit lens more than make up for it. If you can't work around 1-stop, then you probably shouldn't be considering a camera at this level.

I haven't found one that perfectly suits my needs yet, though I am considering the Canon PowerShot SD780IS 12.1Here's a link to it on Amazon:http://tinyurl.com/q56h7qBut I'm holding out for something better until the end of this year. In which case I'll probably go with the Canon.

The p7100 takes really nice shots in auto mode. However, it is a touch slower than I would like. Granted, I am comparing it do a D7000...

i actually returned it after couple of days. I went with glidecam. I wasn't too happy with it's performance. As far as camera goes, i think it can handle canon c 100

I would get the Nikon Coolpix L120. By far the best choice out there, and it's affordable!

Hi, It will be more than enough. If you will dive into photography go a head. Otherwise think about compact digital machines for example Canon Powershot G series have very good point and shot performance.regards,

I'd go with 7. fine as a web cam, not so much for photography. for the money, better than I expected.

pika2000 said is nice and to the point. The APS-C sensor is that size that most DSLRs have. The next biggest sensor is a "Full Frame" but then you are looking at $2K+ for body only. Also good point - if you have no interest in learning how to use lenses - go with the RX100 - great camera.

I have a d700 and it has worked wonderfully with it. No issues at all, I've used it multiple times.
