The Nikon Coolpix P1000 was discontinued last year, with Nikon Rumors suggesting that a replacement for one of the best bridge cameras could be released in the middle of this year. Unsurprisingly, as stock has thinned, the Nikon P1000’s price has inflated. And now, things have gotten a little bit silly. At the time of writing, I’ve seen new units listed for over double the RRP. Yikes!
A quick look at Amazon’s price history reveals it reached a high of $2294.95 at the beginning of January, with Nikon Rumors even highlighting a renewed model that was priced at a whopping $2844.95. I don’t care how big your lens is, who’s paying that for a six-year-old plus camera with a 1/2.3-inch sensor? If that happens to be you, stop it, just stop it!
