Tony, Stockport

compact and well built

shutter release bit too small and because the overall size of camera is small it can be a little difficult to hold

The size, fits into most pockets, and stylishness of the product its not going to look to outdated. The quality of the Nikon brand, and the fact that they still use the same memory card as my original 5 year old Nikon coolpix uses. Its quick to start up and once one photo is taken the time to recover is quite good for the purpose its intended for.

Battery life could be better. The screen gets messed up with finger prints too easily, maybe a protective screen cover could be provided like the mobiles have when you get them!

Mark, Hastings, “Professional artist/photographer”

Excellent image quality for the size, comparable to my much larger Nikon SLR. Genuinely pocket sized. Robust.

Shutter release button too small - difficult to use in a rush. Unnecessary and irritating synthetic shutter click.

camera is compact easy to use with a strong case and good lense has many features on it and takes excellent quality pictures.

there is no view finder with this camera so if you are in bright sun light you can not always see the screen on the back of the camera.

Its very small and light.

After using an Ixus the Coolpix felt really tinny and of not the same build quality. The UI is also lacking and in bright light it could do with a viewfinder.

Small size, good screen size

Moving between menus - takes some practice unless used all the time. Slow between shots - may be due to 4Gb card fitted.

Chris, Ipswich

Very easy to use with most used features readily available. Very slim which makes it really pocket sized. Image quality in good light is excellent, and flash works well over a considerably larger range than expected for this type of camera. Used by whole family with generally good results from the start. LCD screen is bright enough to use in sunlight as long as you are not wanting to see too much detail.

The exposure button is rather small and needs considerable pressure to operate. This takes some time to get used to, well for me anyway with my man's hands. Teenage daughter has used it without problems.

The build quality is superb. Ultra small and slim but solidly made. Ideal for slipping in your pocket. The picture quality is excellent with many superb features.

The control buttons are very small and need a very delicate touch.

The camera takes good, clear pictures when using the right feature. Great size and very light!

Takes some time to get used to the features, but once you find out how to locate the menu options, is much easier.

Fhis camera was bought as an addition to my main camera i.e. to keep @ hand when a bigger camera was unsuitable. For this purpose the size and weight and picture quality is perfect!!

Charging is the only negative point - the battery comes out and is placed in a seperate charger - it would have been better if the charger could have connected direct to the camera (like a mobile phone)

Shutter and on/off buttons a tad small even for my dainty paws. Best to use fingernail!

The camera is a nice compact size and fits well in a pocket meaning its easy to take out and about at night without having to worry about a bag or looking like an easy to rip off tourist

Easy for the power button to be inadvertantly turned on during transportation

Lightweight, compact and easy to use. Large clear screen.

Delay in taking pictures when in flash mode means that if the subject has moved the image is not the one intended. Shutter size is relatively small, which may be inconvenient for some.

It's neat, light, small, good looking, and easy enough for my 8 and 9 year olds to amster it in an hour or so. Image quality has been good, although we've tweaked most images for light and colour balance in MS Picture Manager.

Bought this for my 10 year old daughter and she loves it. The camera is small, light, easy to use and very cute. She loves being able to take video clips & transfering clips/pics to the computer is easy

Zoom is a bit feeble, but a trade off with the size & weight being so small
