    The Good: Great image quality; lots of options.

    The Bad: No manual exposure control.

    The Bottom Line: If you don't need Wi-Fi, the Nikon Coolpix P4 is a great alternative to the Coolpix P3.

    Review Summary: The Coolpix P4 is the same camera as Coolpix P3, except that it’s lacking the Wi-Fi feature (IEEE 802.11b/g wireless range up to 30m). Nikon Coolpix P4 is also the first compact to include their Vibration reduction technology (image stabilisation).
