Nikon doesn’t make an advanced compact camera anymore, but the Nikon Z30 almost feels like one

Nikon Z30.

The demand for compact cameras with large sensors has risen so much that cameras like the Fujifilm X100VI and Canon G7X Mark III are nearly impossible to find. But not every major camera brand makes a compact camera. Case in point: Nikon has zoomy bridge cameras but currently doesn’t have a large-sensored point-and-shoot in its lineup. What Nikon does have, however, is a mirrorless camera that feels almost like a compact camera: The Nikon Z30.

Nikon is no stranger to compact cameras with large sensors. The Nikon Coolpix A, launched in 2013, had an APS-C sensor, for example. But Nikon’s current model point-and-shoot cameras are only the small sensor but big zoom Coolpix P cameras, the latest of which is the Nikon Coolpix P1100.
