Nikon Coolpix P100

This is a list of bridge cameras, which are loosely defined as fixed-lens digital cameras with DSLR-style bodies and superzoom lenses.[1][2] Their larger bodies and lenses differentiate them from smaller superzoom compact cameras, also known as travel zoom cameras.[3][4]

Almost all bridge cameras include an electronic viewfinder (EVF) centered above the lens, with the exception of the Canon G3 X (that offered it as an optional accessory) and some low-end models, such as the Nikon B600.[5]

All current models include a power zoom lens that retracts when not in use and is controlled by a lever on the body like on a point-and-shoot, but a few past models such as the Fujifilm X-S1 and S9000 included a manual zoom lens controlled by a ring on the lens.[6]

Large sensor bridge cameras with at least 16× zoom

The Panasonic FZ1, FZ2, FZ10, and FZ20 from the early 2000s also included superzoom lenses with constant aperture, but their minuscule low-resolution CCD sensors are outperformed in most lighting conditions by more recent bridge cameras with CMOS sensors.

Small sensor bridge cameras with at least 60× zoom

(There are far too many small sensor bridge cameras with less than 60× zoom to list here.)
