Customer Reviews
Skip this camera - Eric Siron -
We bought this camera to replace a less-than half as expensive one that our two-year-old slammed to the ground in a tantrum. In hindsight, I wish we had re-bought that one.
The "Auto" setting is guaranteed to produce blurry, yellow pictures in anything other than incandescent or natural light. If you have good lighting, then you get blurry pictures with vivid color. If you tinker with the manual settings, you can get a picture in non-natural lighting that is nice, but if you forget to change it in other settings, I.E. you're chasing your toddler inside and outside, then it wrecks all your other pictures. This completely defeats both the purpose of "auto" and the fact that we elected to spend extra on the camera because we're not professional photographers and don't want to be. If fluorescent bulbs were a concept invented last week then I'd be more forgiving, but come on Nikon, they have been around for a very long time, learn to deal with them already.
I'm not sure why the pictures are blurry, but it seems all the fancy steadying tech supposedly in this camera is junk. My 2-year-old 0 camera didn't have any of it and those pictures are much sharper (and properly white-balanced in "auto").
Having spent more on this camera than on any camera prior and not being the sort of folks that just have 0 to burn, we were extremely cautious with it. After getting about 300 pictures on it, the shutter button is permanently stuck in the halfway point. If we really smash the button in all directions, it will eventually take a picture, but the effort in doing so results in even blurrier pictures than normal. I was tempted to hold off on the review until I found out how Nikon intends to treat us in the warranty department, but I'm assuming I'll at least have to pay shipping charges, and I'm not certain I want to spend even more money risking the possibility of bad customer service on a product I'm already experiencing serious buyer's remorse over.
The battery pack is bittersweet. It lasts a pretty long time compared to the regular AAs from our last camera, but you can pick up AAs anywhere and they're comparatively cheap. For this, you either need to shell out a not insignificant chunk of change on a spare battery or take no pictures while the one you've got charges up. Overall, I think I'd rather have AAs than a battery pack, but I imagine that's personal preference.
It is compact. However, so are most of the rocks my daughter picks up, and those are equally functional to this camera, less frustrating to operate, and free.
Overall, buying this is an expensive way to get a cheap camera. I'm hoping I can find the box to the camera my daughter broke so we can go back to that brand.
