Comments about Nikon Nikon Coolpix S3000 Digital Camera with 12.0 Megapixel - Plum - Refurbished by Nikon U.S.A.:

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.

Comments about Nikon Nikon Coolpix S3000 Digital Camera with 12.0 Megapixel - Plum - Refurbished by Nikon U.S.A.:

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brand new & buying refurbished reduced the price by about $40.Seeing that in a couple of years it'll probably be outdated, I prefer to pay less & buy more often.

Comments about Nikon Nikon Coolpix S3000 Digital Camera with 12.0 Megapixel - Plum - Refurbished by Nikon U.S.A.:

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.
