The Nikon Coolpix series is a solid bunch of cameras. I have one at the office and while it’s a little old school now being a 5mp with a 1.5 inch LCD, it is still a tank and takes really fantastic images. It’s a nice go-between for people who want better quality than a thin point and shoot but don’t want to go for a big DSLR. At 10.3 mp it will take some pretty large pictures but the best feature of all is its FULL 1080P video mode. Yes, I said it FULL 1080P video mode at 30fps. It also has a 3 inch LCD with an amazing 26x wide-angle optical zoom. A fantastic deal at $399 and while it isn’t available yet, it should be out soon but screw it – PRE ORDER BABY!
