With a superb Nikkor super telephoto glass lens that delivers 34× optical zoom plus an astounding 68× Dynamic Fine Zoom, you'll be amazed by how far you can reach. Hybrid Vibration Reduction helps ensure a little camera shake won't blur your videos - a big plus when shooting at these long zoom distances. The Coolpix L830's comfortable design, elegantly simple controls and intuitive menu system make operation a breeze. You can even tilt the high-resolution LCD for a better view while recording Full HD 1080/50i video with stereo sound. Getting closer to the moments that matter just got easier.

Get even closer to what matters
Every Coolpix is designed around a genuine NIKKOR glass lens, the legendary optics that have helped make Nikon famous. The Coolpix L830’s 34× optical zoom lens goes from wide-angle - great for portraits and landscapes - all the way up to telephoto - great for closeups of sports, concerts, nature and more. When you need even more reach, zoom up to 34× with optical zoom and 68× with Dynamic Fine Zoom, an enhanced digital zoom function that effectively doubles your reach.

Master the camera in no time
The Coolpix L830 is so easy to use, anyone can take great photos and videos with it. Just turn the camera on, point, shoot and marvel at the results. For maximum point-and-shoot convenience, select Easy Auto Mode. It automatically optimizes the camera settings for each shot, no matter how challenging the situation. You'll be free to enjoy the moment while you capture it.

Enjoy the view
The Coolpix L830's large, 921000 dot LCD display makes it easy to compose your shots or monitor your video recording. Reviewing and sharing your creations is a pleasure, too - every shot looks fantastic on the display.

Record superior videos
If you want a compact camera that shoots stunning Full HD videos, the Coolpix L830 delivers. Full HD 1080p means exceptional video quality. Record the action, then connect to an HDTV and watch your videos come alive. A built-in mic records high-quality audio in stereo. Your videos will look and sound phenomenal.

Let the camera call the shots
Experienced photographers optimize their camera settings to match the situation. The Coolpix L830 does that work for you. With 18 Scene Modes, including Beach, Snow, Night Portrait, Sunset and more, it's easy to match the moment to a Scene Mode. You can even get creative and use Scene Modes to alter ordinary shots. Or, select Easy Auto Mode and let the camera choose the best mode for your situation.
