    Figured a sub $200 camera would take good pictures but this one failed to deliver.. yeah I have gotten some good shots out of it but the pictures all turn out smooth and pastel like(aka the quality is not good!). Remember Just because it has a lot of megapixels doesn’t mean the sensor is great as I had a 8 megapixel camera that cost $120 from about 12 years ago take pictures MUCH better than this one! The camera is easy to use and the WiFi features are nice to have.. but if it’s easier to just take out your cell phone and take BETTER pictures anyways... meh just skip this camera all together if your have an IPhone or you’ll just be disappointed..

    I bought this camera to replace an Kodak camera I've owned for years, I really like how easy this Nikon was to use, extremely sharp pictures, very fast shutter speeds, After I found out the camera uses standard AA batteries, I bought some rechargeable AA batteries, so I wouldn't have to keep replacing them. I also bought the Lowepro camera bag which is well padded and fits this camera perfectly.

    I was sort of looking, but not really. I heard that there was cool new functionality where you could transfer your photos to your phone via wifi. Nikon has a proprietary app that lets you do it even faster via bluetooth. I take the picture, and bam, it's on my phone. Has bells and whistles I don't know how to use yet, but so far this specific bluetooth functionality is what is really doing it for me.
