Nikon’s Coolpix P900 is an impressive superzoom camera. With its 83x zoom capabilities, equal to roughly 2000mm on a full-frame sensor, it packs quite a punch in its considerably small frame. It appears though, that manufacturing the Coolpix P900 isn’t as efficient as it probably should be to keep up with demand.

Almost immediately after its announcement date of March 2nd, 2015, the Coolpix P900 has been out of stock on almost every online retailer, including B&H and Amazon. Today, Nikon Japan addressed [Translated] its production shortages, apologizing for the ‘inconvenience to customers’ and stating they’re working hard to ramp up production to meet demand.

No definitive timeframe was given, but you can sign up on both Amazon and B&H to be notified when they’re in stock. In the meantime, all you can do is sit back and relax while you plan out what subject matter will look best at 2000mm.
