Dual Detect Optical VR is CIPA 4.0 stops, measured at about 350 mm equivalent \u2014 not a license to handhold the moon. Stills CIPA about 260 shots on EN-EL20a (7.2 V, 1110 mAh). Movie actual recording about 1 h 10 min. 4K UHD 2160\/30p files top out around 6 minutes; Nikon wants UHS Speed Class 3 \/ V30 or faster.

Filters screw into 77 mm on the lens; no UR-E adapter. Nikon warns that the built-in flash plus a filter can darken the corners.

For 4K (2160\/30p or 25p), Nikon recommends UHS Speed Class 3 \/ V30 or faster. Ordinary movies can use Speed Class 6 \/ V6. UHS-II cards will still run; they will not run faster than the bus.<\/p><\/div>\n  <div class=\"faq-item\"><h3>Does the DF-M1 fit the P1100 or only the P1000?<\/h3><p>The P1100 optional-accessory list includes the DF-M1. It mounts on the accessory shoe. Packaging that still says P1000 is. Sight it in; it is not plug-and-play tracking.<\/p><\/div>\n  <div class=\"faq-item\"><h3>Can I charge with the cable in the box?<\/h3><p>The box cable is UC-E24. EH-73P uses that cable. EH-8P needs the optional UC-E25 (USB-C to USB-C). Nikon says the supplied cable cannot charge via EH-8P.<\/p><\/div>\n  <div class=\"faq-item\"><h3>Do I need a special tripod plate?<\/h3><p>You need a tripod. You do not need a no-name \u201cP1100 carbon plate\u201d SKU. The camera has a 1\/4-20 socket.
