Cons: very slow between pics, EATS BATTERIES FAST

I've had this camera about a year now and have taken thousands of pictures, which sit on my laptop and rarely are printed out into real pictures (though they look nice when they are printed). Overall: This is an alright digital camera at best. I ...

After seeing Best Buy's 12 months 0% interest on Digital Cameras over $299 this week, I decided now would be a good time to upgrade from my current 1.3 megapixel Olympus D-460 camera.

My initial visit to Best Buy was to see which digital...

Nikon has it bagged. This is a great camera for the novice. I was helping my mother buy a digital ca ...

This review is intended to discuss a few reasons why you should buy a digital camera, and this o ...

Pros: Excellent physical layout, small size, and super easy to use.
Cons: Battery life is completely unacceptable.

I'm going to keep this review simple because this is a simple camera, aimed at simple users. And I'm going to spoil the ending: don't buy this camera. Why not? Read on. What do most people really want in a camera? They want it to be small, easy to ...

Pros: Great camera, light, lots of modes for average users, nice 3x optical zoom, good resolution
Cons: Requires expendable Lithium batteries or brand new NiMH rechargeable batteries.

Bought a Nikon Coolpix 3100 for a friend and received it yesterday. Great camera just as advertised - except for the power system (batteries). Not wanting to use the Lithium batteries that came with the camera, I popped in two new alkaline batteries. ...

Pros: Takes good pictures & has fun features,changing photos to black & white, sepia, etc
Cons: Some features impossible to figure how to use, eats batteries

I saw the Nikon Coolpix and was awed by it's size. I read reviews on it and it sounded great. So I bought one about a year ago. I curse the stupid little thing every time I use it. I bought it at Best Buy and got all the equipment to go with it - ...

Pros: Very user friendly and gives very good pictures. Too many pros to list here.
Cons: There aren't any cons.

I love to take pictures. When my husband surprised us with this camera, I was excited. I started right away using it and haven't used my other camera since. We regularly go to Moab jeeping and on trails you don't have a lot of time to stop and take that ...

Pros: Phenomenal picture quality, ease of use, portability.
Cons: Mode dial can turn easily

I was in the market for a good quality digital camera that had to meet certain specifications. What I wanted was a camera that was small enough to be portable without being cumbersome, take good quality pictures and have plenty of features. I found that ...

Pros: Easy to use, lots of great features, clear and crisp results
Cons: lag time between photos, red-eye reduction is so-so.

First let me start out saying that I am a casual camera user- the most techical thing I've done with any camera is use the red-eye reduction. I can't tell you anything techical about the specifications of this camera like some of the other reviewers but ...

Pros: Fits in your hand/pocket, great photos, simple point and shoot technology
Cons: Not for professional photographers who want to play around with f-stops, etc.

I'm here to tell you that buying a camera is a personal thing. While reviews can be helpful, ultimately it is a tradeoff among 2 or three considerations that are most important to you. I have owned this camera for about 6 months and am very pleased ...

Pros: quality pictures,tough lcd,exposure settings,presets
Cons: slow turn on, slow to take next photo

When I decided to spend the big dough (for me) on a digital camera, I did some research. It was between Nikon 3100 and the Canon A70. I actually decided on the A70 but when I went to buy it, it was out of stock for some type of repairs in three stores. I ...

Pros: Great pictures, fits in your hand well, great screen, cheap CF media.
Cons: no AC adapters or rechargeable batteries included. No carrying case either.

I tell you, this camera might be for everyone except people who fall into two groups. Those would be professional photographers, but even my brother who is a professional would love using this for personal photos at holidays. The second group might be t ...
