Here is the P7000, the Nikon compact expert, a segment long ignored by the Nippon, but on which he came back brilliantly through this Coolpix whose build quality is exemplary. The highly plastic side of the Canon G12 will pale next to the P7000, as we have we see on the Photokina for handling both on the same day. It is equipped with a lens equivalent to 28-200mm stabilized by the Nikon VR system.
