    Just started learning the operation of this camera. My last camera was a 35mm film type. I chose this Nikon because research said this is the one I needed. So far so good.

    I love it. I was a first time mom and needed to have a camera to document my baby !! This has been that and more but after a while something happened and the pictures on my I phone are clearer than the ones on the camera . I tried to reset settings and nothing . For the price I won’t complain

    The product seems OK but it does not operate to perform the uses I sought and explained before purchase. I suppose I must “upgrade” to get what works as needed and as I thought I was getting.

    Has a very sleek look. When it spins you can't even here it. I just got it yesterday but so far so good . Was going to go with a top loader but so glad I changed my mind the front loaders really do get you clothes cleaner and this one has a steam and allergen cycle can't wait to try those!

    Bought this camera to replace an old kodak camera. So far haven't had any problems. It was easy to set up and link with my phone. I like that the screen tilts so I can get pictures from other angles and still see what I am taking a picture of. I would recommend this camera.

    I came looking for a point and shoot, but I did not want chargeable batteries. This was the only one that used regular batteries. However, after talking to the store clerk, he explained this was basically a point and shoot also. It has some great advantages and so far I am very happy with it

    This camera is user friendly. It takes beautiful pictures. And one feature I love is it uses AA alkaline batteries. I’ve bought expensive cameras in the past and after a few years can longer find batteries because they stopped making them. Love this camera!

    Overall not a bad camera, but we have had to take it back for a return on one occasion and send it to the factory on another... The lens motors are not the best.

    This takes nice pictures, it was a little confusing to figure out at first because the pictures kept coming out blurry but we figured out to use the zoom on the side of the lens instead of the zoom near the capture button. Good quality photos.

    Still getting used to this camera but really like all of the features, especially the Zoom lens and the adjustable view-finder which allows you to frame pictures at various angles. It has a nice 'feel' in my hands and I like that I can use re-chargeable AA- batteries

    Disappointed! Can't connect to iPhone

    This is my 2nd CoolPix camera. I was looking forward to having the ability to connect the camera to my iPhone. However, the SnapBridge software has issues with IOS 13. Nikon is currently working on a fix. Not sure how long that will take. So moving pictures from the camera to the desktop (iCloud) includes removing the scan card from the camera & placing in the Mac. (btw, the the memory card is in the battery compartment). As it stands today, with out the ability to connect to an iPhone, I would not recommend this camera.
