Book of instructions no good
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.had to go on the internet to get a users manual. which is a cheap way of doing business. had to also go on line and download a program to transfer pics from camera to computer. also it came with regular batteries nand no rechargeable ones or a charger. How many pictures will it take. Had to also buy more memory for it. a person wants everything with the camera and forget the internet. took camera back won't waste money on an internet supported item and cheapy power supply.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from NikonStaff
Posted .Many COOLPIX cameras use rechargeable Li-ion batteries and Nikon supplies those cameras with a battery and a charger. However, the COOLPIX B500 uses AA batteries and is supplied with a set of 4 AA Alkaline batteries for trial purposes. Some customers prefer the convenience of AA batteries, and battery life varies depending on the type of AA batteries used. Approximately 600 still photos can be taken when using fresh AA Alkaline batteries, while approximately 1240 still photos can be taken with fresh AA Lithium batteries. Additional details on battery life & testing can be found in the COOLPIX B500 Reference Manual which can be downloaded from Nikon’s website. The B500 is also supplied with a camera strap, lens cap, USB cable, and a printed Quickstart Guide. Nikon’s free View NX-i software is available for download from Nikon’s website. The COOLPIX B500 has about 20MB of internal storage, and accepts standard sized SD/SDHC/SDXC memory cards (not included).
