    Amazing! Better than I even expected, knowing already how awesome Nikon is. I had been wanting to upgrade and found this amazing deal. Best Buy made it super easy to shop and buy it online and I had it in less than a week. Way to go!

    I've always just used my cell phone but I'm glad I decided to get this camera. The picture quality is good. I tend to use it more often now at like family gatherings. This is my first camera like this so I still have some learning to do with how to use certain settings correctly. Other then that great camera to learn on.

    I'm not so good at photography so I decided on a point and shoot w/ all auto settings. there are plenty of settings to get the right shot. sometimes maybe too many and I don't have time to figure out which to use. the zoom is incredible, but I'm not able to hold it steady enough for a clear shot (probably mostly me).

    The 40X zoom is amazing and the camera is fast enough for everything from hummingbirds to soccer games. The quality of the photos produced is amazing. Snapbridge let's me activate the shutter with my Pixel phone, great for remote shots The auto scene selection makes general photography so easy.

    I especially like the zoom. I took it to the Nellis Air Show and got some fantastic pics and videos! Good intermediate camera. The Nikon app is a little difficult and not very user friendly. But you don't have to use the app. Just put the memory card in your computer and transfer the pics and videos. It's a lot easier.

    Using my phone as a camera on vacation wasn't cutting it. So I decided I needed a real camera. I didn't want to deal with all the settings so this Coolpix camera was the one I bought. Very pleased with it.

    We had an older model Nikon that we used for years and th flash finally broke so we bought this. It has not disappointed. The picture quality is vastly superior to what I get with my iPhone. Just wished I remembered to bring it with me more.

    I purchased this camera for my 15 year old daughter, per her request. I didn't think to check and was disappointes to find that it runs on AA rechargeable batteries. I have a very similar camera and it does not use these AAs. Otherwise, so far battery life is ok and the quality of photos os good.
