Love Nikon camera
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve always enjoyed the easy to use Nikon cool pix cameras. I recently upgraded to the A900 and loved the Bluetooth/WiFi feature on my recent trip to Ireland. Sharing instantly with my iPhone made it so easy to share my photos day to day on vacation. Quality of photos are amazing with the even better zoom on this camera. I highly recommend this camera and super easy to use.

Fantastic photo results
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This camera has all the settings from auto to manual and everything in between that I need.. The zoom is excellent for my needs 24x optical. In fact, on my trip to Israel, a person with a long zoom digital more expensive camera was not able to get the wide variety of light situations to match the clear shots I obtained. I am very satisfied and would recommend this camera.

Great overall camera
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Here are the reasons why I'm not giving this camera 5 stars: No viewfinder Unable to shoot unlimited video (28+ minute max per session in HD and 7+ minute max per session in 4K) This camera would be the best overall point and shoot on the market if it had just 5x more optical zoom (it has 35x optical zoom) It is a little pricey. This does take good pictures, it just takes some practice with the long zoom. I have attached a picture that I took of the moon with both the optical and digital zooms maxed out. It has not been edited at all aside from cropping.

Fantastic camera for travel
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased Nikon coolpix A900 to take for a two week vacation in Europe. The small size is convenient for getting around in crowds. The zoom is great and it takes fast pictures. I was able to capture pictures even when others with manual cameras were still setting up. I kept it on automatic but this camera does have some manual settings. Battery life is great. I have a spare battery also but found that one battery was sufficient for a full day of pictures. SnapBridge works great. I did have to update the firmware before it worked but the directions were easy to follow. Love this camera and look forward to using it all the time.

My All In One Camera
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I needed to replace my Coolpix S8100. I prefer a camera as opposed to my cell phone when I take pictures. The A900 blew me away. This camera has the ability to get moon shots with amazing detail. A versatile camera for great photos on the run.
