Good camera for the money BUT...
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I needed a replacement for my Sony (which I loved) that crashed but didn't want to spend the money for the replacement. Took a few pics for familiarization and while it did take good pics I did find a few issues. Main one for me is you cannot force flash. A lot of the pics I was taking were indoors and the camera was sensing enough light so it didn't flash. That left a very uneven pic as far as light goes. A force flash would have taken care of the problem. Close ups also created a problem for me. I would put a light over top of the object I was photographing but the sides were dark. Taking a pic of the dark sides would not trigger the flash because of the overhead light. A specific problem in my case but could have been taken care of with a flash. Second is that the pic doesn't seem to capture all the item that shows in the viewfinder. If I take the item just to the edge of the viewfinder and take the pic, it cuts some of it off when viewing. Third item is just a little annoying, the power button doesn't appear to work at times. I have to hit the button a few times before it turns on. Not all the time but sometimes. It always works when I turn it off. Good camera for general pics.

Camera did not work, so I returned it
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this camera because of wifi and Bluetooth features. I turned on camera and it worked fine but initial battery had very little charge. Turned off camera to charge and it would not turn back on. I checked internet to resolve this problem. It said to remove memory card and battery to turn back on. I then charged the battery to full and turned the camera off. Returned 1 hour later and battery was dead and would not turn on. I removed the battery and memory card again, then camera would turn on but said that the battery was completely dead. I then decided to return the camera and get a Canon camera instead. I bought the camera for ease of and more capacity than phone camera, but this camera was not easy to use, in fact it did not work at all. Having to remove the battery to turn on is unacceptable.

Posted .A COOLPIX A300 with a fully charged Nikon EN-EL19 battery has a battery life of approximately 240 still images or approximately 45 minutes of movie recording. Specific information on battery life and how this is measured can be found in the COOLPIX A300 Reference Manual. Batteries can discharge over time so they should be recharged following an extended period of disuse. For further assistance with your A300 please contact Nikon Support at 1-800-NikonUS.
