The Coolpix P310’s understated design reflects your style for substance over flashy pretentiousness. This camera is meant to function as a superior digital shooter, and not a fashion accessory. Nikon has cleverly added two vertical rubber strips on the front and back of the camera body. No bulky, molded handgrip swathed in thick rubber was necessary. The unobtrusive strips on the P310 provide such a sure grip that you can grab this camera and shoot without fear of it slipping from your hand; and you can point-and-shoot with one hand.
The Nikon Coolpix P310 is also an extremely convenient picture taker. With dimensions of just 2.3 x 4 x 1.3” (58 x 103 x 32mm) and a weight of 6.9 oz. (194g), it fits in a pocket, purse, bag or pack. It’s always there and ready to shoot, but it’s never a burden or bother. For its price point, the Coolpix P310 is one of the smallest and lightest, but powerful, compact cameras.
The two primary visual tools used to take photos make it easy to shoot whenever, wherever and whomever. The Coolpix P310 is equipped with a 4.2x wide-angle optical zoom NIKKOR glass lens, which translates to a focal range of 24–100mm. This is perfect for your kind of subject matter. Select the wide end of the focal range for stunning landscapes and fun distortions of your family, friends and happy times. You and your digital photos will benefit from the rather astounding maximum aperture of f/1.8 at the wide angle. Then, move toward the other end of the focal range and use the best focal lengths for casual portraits, 70–100mm. Nikon has made it easy to capture rock-solid, sharp images with the zoom lens by adding its Vibration Reduction (VR) image stabilization technology to this camera. It compensates for camera shake, so you can shoot with the slower shutter speeds that may be required in low light and still bring home clear, crisp photos. Independent tests reveal that VR operates very smoothly; in fact, you won’t perceive it working, except in the quality of your pictures.
A major upgrade of the P310 from its predecessor, the P300, is a new Function button on the front of the camera body. Designate one of seven primary shooting settings to this button, depending on the subject matter, the place and the lighting. Another new point of control on the P310 is the U option, or User Settings. From this dial on the top of the camera, you’ll immediately switch between the current configuration of settings to any that you created and saved in the menu.
You’re the kind of digital photographer that wants automation! You expect the camera to do the work, so you can enjoy the fun and activities your photographing. The Nikon P310 includes a long list of Scene Modes that match with many of the “likes” in your life. Back Light, Beach, Close Up, Copy, Dusk/Dawn, Easy Panorama, Fireworks Shows, Food, Landscape, Museum, Night Portrait, Panorama Assist, Party/Indoor, Pet Portrait, Portrait, Snow, Sports, Sunset and 3D Photographer make for a full life and the P310 will help you capture it all.
The Nikon Coolpix P310 also features a 16.1-megapixel CMOS sensor; 3-inch, 920,000-dot LCD screen; and 1080p Full-HD video at 30 fps. Audio is recorded in stereo and the zoom lens is fully operational. The video system has the versatility to offer a High Speed mode, so you can shoot movies for slow-mo or fast-mo playback. You can speed past the footage that you don’t want others to see!
