A lot of camera for a reasonable price!
By A. McFarlane
This camera is amazing! I purchased it based on the reviews I read, but had NO idea of all the dissimilar things this camera does! It shoots videos and it shoots in “sports mode” – taking a heap of pictures one right after the other so you don’t miss anything. We have employed this camera at a great deal of multiple-day music festivals and are merely amazed at the clarity of the pictures and how easy it is to use! The sound on the videos is good (if your computer speakers are good) and a unipod solves the shake problem if you have one. The batteries last finelooking long if you aren’t shooting videos – that seems to use them up quicker. This is my primary digital camera, and I purchased it because 1) easy to use, 2) huge preview screen and 3) uses AA batteries. I was utterly thrilled it did all this extra stuff. Friends who took the same pictures with their cameras were astonished at the divergence when the pictures were posted. Ours were much better. Highly commend this camera – in particular to the camera novice (like me).

This is my favored “on the go” camera!
By D. Beckett
This is a great camera for every day use, vacation shots, sports photos, and more. We take low-light, no flash photos with this on the “sports” setting for dance recitals and plays. The photos turn out terrific, and persons always ask what camera we use because they are so impressed with the clarity of the shots.
This camera has a great deal of features and settings. The navigation among settings is beauteous intuitive, and the instruction manual has a large total more ideas too. It has good video capability for capturing something in a video file when you don’t have a camcorder handy. You don’t need particular software to upload photos from this camera – I have a card reader in my computer to do all that.
The camera does a good occupation conserving battery life. We use rechargeable AA batteries without any difficulties for hundreds of photos per charge. It’s compact and reasonably lightweight, and it fits into a shirt pocket with ease.
The big screen makes reviewing photos easy, and deleting ones from the camera is simple with just a touch of a button plus an “are you sure?” question to keep you from potentially erasing something in error.
The 3.6x optical zoom is an betterment over the former Nikon Coolpix we had, so this is now the favored camera in my home! If you’ve had a Coolpix in the past and are thinking regarding getting a newer version, unquestionably do it! You’ll find the operations and menu selections very similar to what you’re employed to, but with added improvements that you’ll appreciate.
We’ve not had any difficulties with the battery cover on this camera or the former Coolpix cameras we still own. If you break the battery cover, it’s time for a new camera, unfortunately. But it’s very sturdy and reliable, so we’ve never worried when it comes to it much.
