The Nikon COOLPIX P610 is a point-and-shoot camera equipped with a 16MP, 1/2.3-inch sensor capable of capturing stills at up to 4608x3456 pixels.

The camera records video at up to 1080p, with frame rate options of 24fps, 25fps, 30fps, and 60fps.
Image stabilization is handled by an optical (OIS) system, with digital IS also available. Composition is straightforward thanks to the 3-inch, 921k-dot fully articulated LCD and a 921k-dot electronic viewfinder. The ISO range spans 100 to 6400.
Storage uses SD, SDHC, or SDXC cards, and connectivity includes built-in Wi-Fi and USB. The camera weighs 565g and runs on the EN-EL23 lithium-ion battery, rated at approximately 360 shots per charge — a practical all-in-one option for everyday and travel photography.
