COOLPIX P950 overview

The Nikon COOLPIX P950 is a 16 MP 1/2.3-inch compact camera with a built-in lens, announced by Nikon in January 2020.

Going by its spec sheet, it suits vlogging and selfies. It is a weaker pick for rain and dust, all-day shooting on one battery, and paid jobs that need a backup card.

No store we track in the United Kingdom lists it today. It is listed in the United States.

Worth comparing it with the Nikon COOLPIX P1000, Nikon COOLPIX P1100 and Nikon COOLPIX P900.

Low light & noise

1.3 µm pixels

16 MP on a 1/2.3" sensor, ISO up to 6,400

Bigger pixels gather more light each, so they tend to show less noise at high ISO, but sensor design matters as much. For real noise at ISO 6400, these sites measure it:
