Coolpix L1 December 9, 2008
Roger Sayre (Fairbanks, Alaska, USA)
I am a beginner with digital cameras, and this camera has worked great. I got it about three years ago, so I pretty much know how to use every mode on it. This camera works great for still shots and scenic pictures. Also, it takes really clear pictures of close up items, such as plants or insects. It also has many different settings on the "Scene" mode, that can allow you to take pictures of fireworks, make a panorama, and many other things easily. Also, this camera is very durable. I have dropped it countless times in the snow, in puddles, on cement, and it still works well. However, this camera is kind of hard to use for action shots. When you press the shutter button, it takes a full two seconds to take the shot. Two seconds may not seem like much, but, for example, when you want to take a shot of someone kicking a soccer ball right as it leaves the ground, after two seconds, the ball is a lot farther away. Also, it burns through battery power fast, so rechargable batteries are a good investment. Overall, I think this camera is a great choice for a person who wants good quality pictures on a camera that will last a long time.
 Worth the price, best for outdoor/daylight December 7, 2008
Shockster (Lexington, KY United States)
I bought this camera because I needed something inexpensive that I could break or lose without feeling too bad. The camera is worth the price, but don't set your expectations too high. It's a great camera to keep in your bag at all times but probably not the end-all of your camera needs.
Pros:
Price
Nikon quality, very durable
Battery life is MUCH better than most digital point-and-shoots
Cons:
Flash stinks, which is expected for an on-camera point-and-shoot
Lag time between shots in low light is painfully slow
Muy buena! November 16, 2008
R. RODRIGUEZ (Northampton, UK)
Esta camara es muy buena. La calidad de imagenes de las fotos es excelente, tiene gran variedad de funciones y aun facil de usar. Pero tiene algunas cositas que yo diria en contra, el lente pareciera estar un poco "flojo" y con los nuevos modelos que han salido ahora es un poco grande y pesada, pero del resto excelente, aunque despues de aprox. 2 anos comenzo a grabar un sonidito cuando estoy grabando el video, no se si lo que quiere decir es que necesito una nueva!!! :-))). En general excelente compra, fotos muy nitidas. Recomiendo este producto ampliamente!

Alan Kessler (Fairhope, AL)
Excellent camera with several surprising capabilities. Easy to use, minimal buttons and good response time. Built-in microphone is tuned perfectly; does not pick up background noise. Pictures are the usual superb quality you would expect from Nikon. The only digital cam I will own.
 It's the photographer, not the camera June 25, 2008
Shawn P. Wright (Niagara Falls, NY USA)
I received this camera as a gift for Christmas 2005, and have used it extensively (over 5k photos and videos) for everything ranging from portrait photos to architectural photos to concert photos, and it has never let me down. Granted, it's not the best performer in low light situations, and it would have been handy to have a few additional exposure settings, but it's performed really well for me.
Contrary to what some of the reviews have said, the battery life is just fine. I shot The Cure during a show at the Wolstein Center in Cleveland on June 18, 2008, and I got close to 250 shots before I had to switch the batteries. Also, the quality of said photos has more to do with the photographer than the camera. Don't blame the camera because all of your shots come out blurry. Play with the settings and stabilize yourself when possible, and seriously, don't expect every single shot to come out amazing. Perhaps you could do that with enough skill using an SLR, but with a point-and-shoot, it's not realistic, so be realistic, and you won't be disappointed. :)
With that said, I do plan on upgrading to a better camera soon, but this model has served me well, and I'd recommend it to anyone.
