The new Coolpix 8700 is an amazing camera and has all the great features that made the 5700 so great: 8X optical zoom (35-280mm), Electronic TTL View Finder, Vari-angle LCD display, 1.2" macro, 3 fps shooting rate and RAW data recording mode. Plus a few new ones: 12 Scene modes including Panorama Assist. Time lapse movie mode. Larger 1.8" LCD screen and higher resolution electronic viewfinder. The Coolpix 8700 accepts all the great converter lenses and accessories that made the 5700 so versatile. And to hush the few critics; a low light auto-focus assist illuminator!
