Product Overview
Nikon Coolpix W150 is an entry-level 1/3.1" compact camera. Introduced by Nikon in 2019, it comes with sensor with 13 MP (4160 x 3120) resolution.
The camera has a poor battery life, and a second or third battery may be needed to get you through the day. One should note that the Nikon Coolpix W150 has a 125 base ISO, which is not conducive to getting the cleanest images.
Last but not least, the camera can focus quite close to the subject.

Sentiment Score 76%The Nikon COOLPIX W150 is an inexpensive, easy to use and fun waterproof compact. It’s fully automatic, has a 3x optical zoom and of course is waterproof, bounce-proof and freeze-proof. Apart from great design and simplicity of operation, its main strength is that it can send photos to your phone over a Bluetooth connection while you shoot. It lacks optical stabilisation,. has a small, low resolution screen, has only one 1080/30p video mode and isn’t great at continuous shooting.
