The Nikon Coolpix L810 powers up in two to three seconds. A half-press of the shutter release button is enough for the camera to determine exposure and focus. A full 16 MP resolution JPEG is committed to memory in two seconds, which is respectable for this class of camera.

Low ISO gives a good performance with smooth results and sharp edges. Colour starts to close in at ISO 800 with definite noise in darker areas and creeping into the mid-range. More about image quality of Nikon Coolpix L810 you can read on photographyblog.com website.

Another Nikon Coolpix L810 review comes from digitalcamerainfo.com website. This website notes that body construction and design of L810 are quite similar to the P510, minus a tilting rear screen and electronic viewfinder. The rear control layout is also slightly different, and lacks both a control dial and a rotating dial.
