It’s significantly smaller and lighter than the other two models, weighing a mere 313 grams. If it’s a lightweight compact bridge super-zoom you’re looking for, the PowerShot SX410 IS is the one to go for. It’s a tiny bit smaller then the PowerShot SX530 HS, but it weighs nearly a hundred grams (three and a half ounces) more. So if you’re looking for something that’s compact and light, the L840 isn’t really it. Factor in the four AA batteries and a card and you’re carrying 538 grams. The COOLPIX L840 is a little larger all round than the model it replaces, and it weighs a little bit more.
Read on to find out if the COOLPIX L840 is the best budget bridge super-zoom, or whether Canon has more to offer you. The other major update is Wifi as well as built-in Wifi the COOLPIX L840 is equipped with an NFC chip, so you can start up a Wifi session by tapping it with your NFC-capable smartphone.Ī longer lens and built-in wifi certainly makes the L840 a more attractive option than its predecessor, but is it enough to keep pace with the competition? Here I’ve compared the COOLPIX L840 alongside Canon’s SX410 IS and SX530 HS the SX410 HS is similarly priced and the SX530 HS costs a little more. As before, the L840 is powered by 4 AA batteries but the battery life has been extended and you can now get a very generous 740 shots from a set of NiMH cells. The 16 Megapixel sensor resolution is unchanged and the L840 sticks with the earlier model’s 921k dot flip-up (and down) LCD screen – no surprise as it’s still a very advanced screen for this class of camera. The new model extends the zoom range from 34x to 38x with all of the extra zoom power at the telephoto end providing an equivalent range of 22.5mm to 855mm. Launched in February 2015, it’s an update to the hugely popular COOLPIX L830 which was launched a year earlier and remains in the COOLPIX line-up for now. The Nikon COOLPIX L840 is a super-zoom with a 38x optical zoom lens and a 16 Megapixel CMOS sensor.
