This is a useful inexpensive camera with a number of features. Indoor picture quality is poor, as is the delay in taking photos.

I bought this product as a gift for my wife so that she could take pictures when we go out. It is small and compact so its easy to carry around, it produces great pictures of good quality, and she can take pictures with it all night and not have to worry about the battery going out.

this camera (my 4th Nikon) has been returned. I am very familiar with Nikon - always good, reliable, durable. this refurbish ($ only 1/2 from regular price) just sucked it would 'turn on' and the lens would extend - but if you didn't push the button just right - the back screen would not show and you couldn't take a picture. If it did open and gave you a view - you had to push the button so hard and firm or it would not take the picture - and by then you had no stability control for a good shot. really am hoping Nikon will replace promptly - I only had it a few days and it stopped working - feel really let down.

I bought this for my teenage son who goes on lots of nature hikes. Its very compact & fits easily into his pocket. The relatively short lag time is great for spontaneous shots(though still can't compete with a SLR). The pictures are clear with good colors & the video is not bad for a point & shoot. note: it comes w/a rechargeble li-on battery which is charged while attached to camera - bit of a disadantage but not terrible.

This is a simple point & shoot camera with good, but not great image quality. A nice camera for the casual family snapshot.

I bought this camera for my teenage son who uses it mainly for social events & scenery on nature walks . He loves that it's so compact & fits in his pants' pocket. It also produces nice clear pictures with good colors & the relatively short lag time is good for spur of the moment shots. (it can't compare with my DSLR but not bad compared to other point & shoot cameras we've had) The camera comes with a rechargeable battery pack which charges while attached to camera.We bought an extra battery but it is a disadvantage that you can't use the camera while recharging. It arrived looking brand new & buying refurbished reduced the price by about $40.Seeing that in a couple of years it'll probably be outdated, I prefer to pay less & buy more often.

The autofocus is slow and the shutter lag is terribleImage quality is good and it fits in any pocket and costs[$] or so, so its a great take anywhere "photo notebook"The wide angle is a big plus

I bought this camera as an upgrade from what we were using. After having a baby we were taking many pictures daily. This camera takes great pictures with minor difficulty in low light. My biggest complaint is the lag time. When taking pictures of our active 8 month old, sometimes we don't get the shot we want because of the slow picture taking time. This lag time impacts the picture in relation to the flash; ie- the flash goes off and then the shutter goes, often times you get a picture with weird half closed eyes.

I wanted to get a friend a new camera for christmas. She has a hard time learning new technology, because she is so busy. This camera was perfect. It came in BRAND NEW condition, and takes very FAST pictures! She loves it! I used it, and as a "Photo Enthusiast" myself (shooting with a Canon DSLR) this camera is awesome for impromptu photo opportunities.
