    This camera is awesome! I've been taking pictures left and right. The zoom feature is a nice touch to get full details, especially with small stuff. I have a rechargeable battery pack for double AAs so switching out batteries quick is a breeze and the fact that I can upload via bluetooth to my phone and laptop is beyond awesome!!

    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.

    basic point n shoot camera for reasonable price. I do not expect this to be fancy but when you compare this to kodak's compact point n shoot. This camera took the cake. I feel that price is fair however could lower it by 40-50 and you get a competitive camera for great price.

    Good camera but software link to iPhone delayed

    Good camera, takes great pictures but instructions and related material poorly done and unclear. Menu on camera not obvious. So, despite being a good camera, it is not particularly user friendly. Even though the camera purports to link to wifi devices, and in this case to my iPhone through SmartBridge, it turns out that the software is not yet ready and, although due out this month, no news as of yet. Disappointing as that was a major reason to buy it. Still, overall a good camera. If they could fix their instructions and their linkage system, it would certainly approach excellent.

    This Nikon Coolpix B500 16.0 megapixel is easy to use. I knew that I wanted to go back with a Nikon when my older model gave out. This model is bigger than my older model, but it has the same great features. It takes crystal clear pictures. I would highly recommend this camera.

    I bought this camera for a vacation to Mexico, I am so thankful I got this one. Super easy to use, and amazing focus. The zoom on this camera is on spy level. I was able to zoom in on things in a city from my room on a cruise ship. I could read signs in the city and see things that my eyes could not.

    Got this for my niece on her birthday and she was able to use it immediately at her party. Pictures and videos came out perfect even though there was not much light in the venue. Also took pictures and recorded videos outside which came out great. She loves this camera. Easy to use, comes with everything you need to get started.

    Needed a camera easier to hold still than my iPhone, and this fills the bill! Nikon quality, ease of use, and great pictures. Don't need interchangeable lenses: just a camera that I can hold in both hands with some zoom/wide angle capability. Superb Nikon quality without breaking the bank. Thanks, Nikon!!

    We have just been experimenting with camera in anticipation of using it on a major trip later this year. Like ease of use and multiple programs. Especially got it for use with zoom so we could hopefully get good pictures of distant objects. In tests around home it has worked great.

    Great camera - would have given it 5 stars except that the electronics froze once so far (fixed by turning off and the on) and am concerned that this may be indicative of further problems. Zoom is excellent and camera is very easy to use.

    This camera is easy to use and takes great pictures. The zoom is beyond what I had expected. I took it to The Wilds in Cumberland Ohio and I was so pleased with the performance of the camera and the quality of the photos. My 13 year old granddaughter took over the picture taking the first time and her pictures were terrific.

    This camera uses 4 AA batteries which are available everywhere. It takes great pictures and has simple controls. The screen angle can be changed for odd directions or high shots. Full features including video. Not a professional camera but really great to document a trip. Software to allow wireless download not available for Mac or Windows 10 as of Aug 2016
