Nikon Coolpix L12 7MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Vibration Reduction Zoom

#1: Nikon Coolpix L12 7MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Vibration Reduction Zoom Reviews!

Overall a nice little camera by Nikon. It's compact enough to carry in a pocket or purse. It makes quality images if used properly. The anti-shake feature is good, especially if you have trouble holding a camera steady. Battery management is good. It uses two AA batteries. They are available in most places and are not expensive when compared to most others. It will accept alkaline, lithium, oxyride, and rechargeable nickel-metal hydride. The case is plastic. The most delicate parts appear to be the battery hatch and memory card lids, the lens extension, and the monitor screen. If you break the monitor screen Nikon will replace it for 0+/-. Storage is either on the camera's internal memory of 21 MB or removable SD cards. Approved cards are by SanDisk, Toshiba, and Panasonic up to 4GB. The camera is made in China. There is no viewfinder. Image composition is done on the monitor screen. It has 20 language options built into the camera. The flash will work up to a maximum of 14-26 feet, depending on the settings. A CD is provided with editing software for Windows or Macintosh. User manuals in English and Spanish are provided. The lens is a 3x Nikkor, 5.7-17.1mm/f2.8-4.7;(a 35mm equivalent of 35-105mm); 5 elements in 5 groups. The sensor is 7.1 million effective pixels. 6 image sizes are available. The shutter speeds are from 1/1500 to 4 seconds. The self timer runs for 10 seconds. The interface is USB. The three areas which I might consider weaknesses are flash recycle times which might be considered a bit on the slow side, macro which seems like it should go a bit closer, and composing on the monitor screen when the sun shines on it. (It's best to shade the screen from direct rays of the sun when composing.) If you have a camera of this type, it's best to spend a little money on a case to protect it. I bought one of those semi-hard clam shell types with a zipper. So far it's protected it well.
