Nikon Coolpix L810 Competitors

As well as being compared against other super zooms, the Nikon Coolpix L810 is also often compared to entry-level DSLRs and travel zooms. The Nikon Coolpix L810's top rivals come from Nikon (such as the Coolpix L820 and the Coolpix L320) and Panasonic (such as the Lumix DMC-LZ20 and the Lumix DMC-LZ30)

Generally, some of the advantages of the Nikon L810 compared to other super zoom competitors include: it has a slightly higher resolution screen (921k dots vs 460k dots) and captures 3D images.
