 Best digicam September 2, 2010

A wonder digicam. Even a novice can become an expert with such details on the menu. If you have a passion for photography this a never-miss cam.
 High maintence camera!! September 2, 2010
Mylissa russell (Parkville, MO United States)
The first one stopped holding a charge and I had a hard time getting it to turn on. The second one lost it's charge and I couldn't get it to turn on at all. The third one, I took it out of the box and it wouldn't even turn on the first time. Done! So I purchased a Panasonic-ZR3 which is also 14mp, 10X zoom and 25mm lens. It's also cheaper. I loved the Panasonic Lumix I had before.
Besides the fact that it wouldn't turn on, there were so many things about this camera I didn't like. (I used the first one for about 3 months before it stopped working.)
The flash is such an obvious flaw I can't believe it went to production. If you hold the camera with two hands, a finger naturally goes over the flash, which then can't pop up. You get used to it, but never mind giving the camera to someone else to shoot the picture unless you explain not to put their finger there....because they will every time....and you lose the picture you were trying to get, or have to do it over.
The on button is tiny and inverted into the camera. So even if the battery charges correctly, it usually took several pushes to get it to come on.
The shutter in front of the lens constantly stuck open or closed.
The video quality is so poor it's almost not worth using. The mic is on top of the camera.
It can only be charge with a USB cord. Which is cumbersome if you have to recharge away from home.
The camera just overall is unreliable, flimsy, and unpredictable. The pictures are great, no doubt. But I don't think that's the camera, but the 14 mp. Very high maintenance camera!!
Nikon s8000 provided fantastic photos on my vacation August 20, 2010
I have no complaints about this camera. I am not a pro photographer, but I have always liked keeping video records and this camera has been great. The picture quality is fantastic. I can't think of any complaints about this camera.
 Not Pleased! August 18, 2010

I spent tooo much on this Nikon. I am very disappointed with the body frame and the picture quality. Too expensive for the pictures that it takes. Even in my purse, some how, the metal around the pop up flash got bent in and I had to do a quick fix myself and I did a good job on my own repair..bent it back into shape using a cloth and needle nose pliers. I had to remove the plastic side pannel first. Cheaply built. It's a major shame. All my other digital cameras never...never had a problem being in my purse. But, I never had a pop up flash on a pocket camera either. Steer away from the pop up falsh cameras...just incase you don't want to have this problem.
The picture quality sucks. I didn't expect DSLR quality pics but I did expect better that what I get as far as the pics go. It's bigger than I wanted too. It looks good, the wide angle is ok, the START UP IS SLOOOW. LIKE A TURTLE IN A THREE LEG race. What ever. That is another major disappointment. By the time I wanted to take a fast shot, the shot would be lost due to a slow start up. All my other older digital cameras all started up quick and the all cost a lot less. But, you live, buy and learn.
If you don't mind these flaws, then go ahead and purchase one! but...I am putting my own warning lable on it. Just keep it in a safe carry case!
 so far so good... August 16, 2010

I've barely had this camera a month, but so far I do like it. It takes some quality pictures, which I admit I have to run around the settings a bit to get the best for what I want. I don't rely on the Auto, it usually doesn't give me the kind of picture I'm looking for. I've taken a couple videos, during the day and night. The day quality is amazing. The night... it's okay, I can still make out what everything is for the most part. My only issue with that is when I playback the video on the camera, the audio is EXTREMELY low. But as soon as I upload the video onto my laptop it's loud. Not sure if that's a camera flaw exactly. Other than that, I enjoy using this camera, take it on vacations, concerts and just nights out.
