    This camera was purchased as a Christmas gift to my Dad. He had a Nikon that abruptly quit about a year ago. This replacement was perfect and he loves it! Easy to use and takes great pictures!

    I wanted a smaller camera to take the place of an aging SLR that was a little bulky for traveling. The B500 takes excellent stills and video, even in low light. Love the Bluetooth capabilities.

    My camera like this one was stolen, I didn't hesitate to purchase the exact same camera when I went to replace it. This camera is so easy to use and takes wonderfully clear photos.

    I needed a new camera to take better pictures of my kids playing ball that were clear, not fuzzy. This camera does this and more. Love the flip flat screen too!

    This camera is easy to use and light weight but I did return it because I needed a camera that I could print high quality for pictures zoomed in from a long distance.

    We bought this as a Christmas Gift for our daughter, as we have the CoolPix P510 and love it. Happy to say it was a great purchase for our Daughter and the plum color (her favorite) was a definite plus.

    I went in to get a Canon, but this Nikon was definitely calling my name. The color is different and had the Bluetooth and wifi capability which I like. The picture quality is amazing.

    Excellent point and shoot camera. Zoom capability gives you the ability to frame your pictures the way you want without having to move around as much. To me the biggest selling point is it's use of standard AA batteries for power. Most cameras today use specialized batteries. That means your camera is useable only as long as you can purchase replacements when your current battery goes bad. So a very expensive camera becomes useless because a $50 battery is no longer available. AA batteries are available just about anywhere and inexpensive.

    Nice Camera For the Price

    This is a really nice camera. It has the functions that I need. I am not a professional, so this is perfect for me. It uses 4 AA batteries. The only issue I have with this camera is not being able to open and close the battery cover effortlessly to get to the batteries and sd card...I suppose with time it will become easier.
