Another notable characteristic of the P310 is its high-resolution 3-inch LCD screen, which provides excellent visibility and vibrant color reproduction. The screen is also helpful for composing shots and reviewing images, making it easier to navigate the camera's settings and features.

For videographers, the P310 supports Full HD 1080p video recording, with options for stereo sound. This allows users to create high-quality videos that meet modern standards.
