However good your DSLR or mirrorless camera, do you sometimes yearn for a ‘do it all’ camera? One that means you no longer have to carry around a clanking bag of lenses, or get frustrated as your longest lens still isn’t long enough?
The answer could be a superzoom or bridge compact camera. These have been around for some time, and while some purists sniff at the optical compromises necessary with a very long built-in lens, they remain popular.
A good example is the Nikon Coolpix P1100, which features a whopping 125x optical zoom lens. This offers the equivalent to 24-3000mm from ultra-wide to super telephoto zoom, making the camera suitable for everything from wider-angle landscapes to capturing distant birds. While it’s quite a big camera, there is also a lot to like – see our original review.
