Combining a small compact camera body and an APS-C-sized sensor, the Nikon Coolpix A delivers both convenience and high image quality. The camera has all the features that most enthusiast photographers would want from a fixed-lens compact camera, although...
First class image quality, Easy to use menu system, High-quality LCD screen, Full-size sensor in pocketable body
Lacking built-in Wi-Fi, Absence of a filter thread, Slow focusing speed
The Nikon Coolpix A is the first APS-C compact to genuinely fit in a pocket – a great achievement. That makes it damn expensive, but Nikon has done an awful lot to ensure that it meets the premium price tag. Build quality is exemplary and image quality is...
