Our verdict

There is much to like about the Nikon Coolpix P300, not least its style, simplicity and fast lens. However, in offering an f/1.8 lens and full manual control it seems an opportunity has been missed by not including raw shooting. Also, the small sensor cannot match top-end pocket compacts for image quality and noise control. As such, if Nikon wants to compete at the top, it will need to improve its second-generation model should it launch one.
