Not been zooming in on “things” enough lately? Well maybe Nikon can help. The company is introducing the new Coolpix P80 18x zoom camera, which covers focal lengths from 27mm to 486mm — which is a ton of millimeters. The P80 also sports the camera-maker’s fancy pants NIKKOR optics, burst modes in four, six, and 13 FPS, ISO to 6400, and a 2.7-inch, anti-reflective LCD display. The camera has a slew of onboard tweaks that make capturing your family get-togethers or drunken escapades easier (provided the two events are separate), like auto redeye reduction and face detection (Face Priority AF). The Coolpix P80 will be available this month for the incredible MSRP of $399.99. Check the gallery below for a number of revealing angles.

We knew Canon’s hot new Rebel XSi was due this month, but it looks like Amazon is once again to the rescue with a specific street date: April 27, which is a bit after the previously-rumored date of the 15th. That’s what, just 5,000 pennies a day to get one by launch? Absolutely doable.

PS. -Don’t forget, if you can’t wait that long, we’ve got a hands-on gallery right here.

[Thanks, Dan]
