    I love his camera. Brought it for a trip to Alaska and I felt like a professional. I was able to take shutter speed shots of whales coming out of the water. Very easy to use and able to zoom in on far away subjects. I even used a tripod so I really was able to take full advantage of all features. This is a must for those who want awesome pictures but a camera at a decent price.

    Bought this camera two days before going on a vacation. It was easy to use straight out of the box. Takes good pictures. The screen is a little tough when in bright sunlight, but others who have reviewed this camera said the same thing, but every point and shoot camera I looked at had the same issue. The screen just can't get bright enough in sunlight. State of the art with LCD displays.

    This camera is very easy to use. It is light weight and the pictures it gives you are excellent. Setting it up to actually take videos and or pictures is so easy any one can handle it. The small video screen gives precise viewing and the color is suburb. Can’t give this camera enough of an excellent review. Would highly recommend this camera to all.

    Great camera, great picture quality, good zoom. The only reason i didnt give it 5 stars is because the auto focus takes too long at times to adjust. And there is no manual way for adjusting focus.

    I bought the camera to take pictures of my nieces basketball games. I couldnt get it ti take very good action shots. Other than that it took pretty nice photos. Video worked well and the camera itself is beautiful. The plum was so pretty i had to have it. When i got home and played with it and seen it really didnt do what i wanted it to do i ended up taking it back. I have an older canon rebel so there was no need for a "pretty" camera just hanging around my house. I would recommend for beginners becausr the system itself was very easy.

    I needed a new camera when my old one suddenly stopped working. After doing extensive research, I decided to purchase this Nikon CoolPix B500. It's not complicated and is very easy to use right out of the box. it takes fantastic photos, the settings are varied but easy to use. The powerful zoom is perfect for a variety of ranges.

    I took this camera on my trip to Germany. I could not have been more pleased with the quality of the pictures I was able to take. There were many castles and scenery that I was able to capture, even from a moving bus! The zoom works exceptionally well. Photos are clear and sharp. Great color!

    I bought the camera because I have some interest in photography. It was easy to use and worked really well. The zoom feature is great for distance shots and it is a nice looking camera, as well. It fits well in my hand and I would recommend it to others.

    I purchased this camera for my first trip to Iceland. I was just looking for something easy to use at a reasonable price. I am 100% thrilled with my purchase! I must have said it a dozen times while on my trip - I'm SO glad I bought this camera! It's very easy to use and I love the zoom and the quality of the pictures is amazing.

    I bought this as an Anniversary present for my wife and she loved it. The camera was easy to use and took decent pictures. It was nice to have something with zoom. Neither of us are photographers so I am sure there is something better out there but for the price it gets the job done.
