Crazy as it seems, the Nikon Coolpix P1100 is one of the hottest cameras around right now. And I'm glad, because I love the P1100 – and I especially love its party piece: its ludicrous 125x optical zoom, giving it an effective focal range of 24-3000mm.
That's just bonkers. And so is the fact that, only a few years ago, bridge cameras looked like they were going extinct. But today, the Nikon Coolpix P1100 is so popular that it's been on back-order since launch – and, just like the compact camera renaissance, there's new life in this brilliant camera category.
