Shop For Nikon Coolpix P6000 13.5MP Digital Camera with 4x Wide Angle Optical Vibration Reduction (VR) Zoom


All in all the Nikon Coolpix P6000 an ok little point-and-shoot.

But I didn't buy it to be an ok little point-and-shoot. I bought it specifically for location scouting and geotagging.

I have owned the P6000 for several months now, and have NEVER managed to get a signal with the GPS.

Now, I figured it wouldn't exactly be a Garmin. And a little spotty coverage would have been tolerable, but to NEVER get a signal is unacceptable.

And an additional frustration: the hotshoe ONLY works with Nikon flashes. It will NOT fire with non-dedicated flashes or wireless flash triggers.

I have tried it with a Pocket Wizard radio slave, Cactus V2s wireless flash trigger, Canon 430EX speedlite, Vivitar 285HV flash, Nikon SB-19, and Nikon SB-600. The only flashes to work were the Nikon SB-19 and SB-600.Get more detail about Nikon Coolpix P6000 13.5MP Digital Camera with 4x Wide Angle Optical Vibration Reduction (VR) Zoom.
