A:AnswerThis camera would NOT work for your photography class. You need to be able to manually change aperture, shutter speed and ISO. Nikon has many other models which would work (I have a 10 year old D3100 - probably many more models since then).
A:AnswerDear Sir, YES...this camera takes really nice pix of the Moon. However, I would suggest you be sure to have a very stable platform or steady tripod. And, if you want to make a poster(s) of your work , I would recommend staying in the "blue" range of zoom. You can increase the power into the "yellow" a little bit. Too much zoom and your shots will become too blurred being enlarged to poster size. And remember...A) If you're not there, you don't get the shot !! B) PREPARATION IS PARAMOUNT !! Thanks for your 'Q'.
A:AnswerI use this camera for a newspaper I work for and I can sit in the balcony during a school production and use the zoom for beautiful pics from the stage!! I love it!!
A:AnswerI suggest calling NIkon and getting an estimate for the screen replacement. You didn't mention if you have tried to take pictures with it since this happened. I would try a few pictures and then call Nikon.
