Nikon has launched the Coolpix P7000 high-end enthusiast compact camera built around a 1/1.7" sensor and featuring a 28-200mm equivalent image stabilized lens. Coming over two years after the P6000, the P7000 is a considerably larger camera featuring bulky, faux-rangefinder styling that is more than a little reminiscent of Canon's G Series. The P7000 has a 10MP CCD sensor, VGA-resolution fixed LCD and a usefully bright F2.8-5.6 aperture range. We've been able to borrow a P7000 and have prepared a hands-on preview.
