    Tired of dragging all the lenses for my Nikon DSLR so this is the perfect travel camera. Took pictures of the lunar eclipse the other night using moon setting and got some terrific pictures. Still learning to get the most out of this camera but so far I am very happy.

    This is my first time with a Nikon. So far I am impressed with the camera. The sharpness of the photos, even when I zoom, is very good.

    I would have loved to have given this camera a 5 star review, -because when it did work, it was amazing! However after 2 cool pix 950s 5 stars is not possible. In short -It became impossible to obtain focus on subjects through the lens. Each camera was sent back to Nikon for repair… one time (first camera) it was rendered defective, and the second time (second camera) it was handed back to me and identified as “repaired”! It was not repaired and still had the same inability to focus

    for a point and click, it is light, but is not that easy to use. You hve relaize that each mode has a menu and they are all different. There is no one around who can teach u just a little bit on how every thing works. Gurnee use to have some one around who knew something, but now they do not. Why sell a product and not have some one to show u how every thing works!!

    My 1st preference was the CoolpixP1000, my friend uses and pictures are fantastic; no longer available so I bought P950. I feel I can trust a Nokon product.

    Waste of money

    Do not buy!!! I repeat do not buy! It is a waste of money. It has a nice zoom but up close it’s useless. You need a good tripod to even use the zoom appropriately and the camera itself is heavy compared to other BETTER and cheaper cameras. Nikon missed with this one. The photos are not as sharp as a typical Nikon camera. If you’re willing to spend 800 on a camera there are better and more versatile cameras available. I regret buying this camera everyday because I can’t afford to buy another one at the moment so I’m stuck with this brick of a camera.
