Nikon Coolpix P510 Digital Camera Review

Image Quality

The P510's image quality is quite solid, all things considered. Shots generally look clean and detailed in most settings, and colors are realistic. Viewed at the full 16 megapixels, photos look a bit soft even at the lowest ISO setting, but the problems disappear when the shots are scaled down to regular, realistic viewing and print sizes. Indoor and low-light photography are decent, though not this camera's strong suit. We were particularly impressed with the quality of telephoto shots. They're as sharp as at any other point in the focal range.
