A few things missing

As take everywhere camera (I have a D200 & D700) I can't believe Nikon does not include a charger to have the flexibility of charging your second battery. The USB door looks flimsy (time will tell). Battery life is short.

Excellent all around camera

This camera is small and easily carried in the pocket. It substitutes for my D-200 which sometimes is inconvenient to carry because of its weight and bulk. The photos are excellent with great macro capability and huge zoom. The flash is excellent although you have to hold the camera somewhat awkwardly in order not to interfere with the popup mechanism. HD video is a major plus for some users.
