Great Camera !
It's a really great camera. I bought this camera from Amazon.com for my recent trip to London, England. Easy to use and picture quality is awsome! The camera settings are already configured and there is no need to manually adjust the settings (the default settings are fine to use, but the option to tweak the settings is available if really want to). Overall, great camera for a reasonable price. |  | Reviewed on 2008-07-10
I Love this camera!
I recently had the L12, went on vacation and well they don't take well to getting in swimming pools! So I purchased this one as it's replacement. I love it even more! Has a lot more features and is very easy to use. It is very compact and the 3" lcd screen is great. The only think I don't like is they put the SD card slot in the battery compartment. I like it better with it's own compartment, I take hundreds of pictures a month and I find it easier to take the card out of the camera and use a card reader on my computer, instead of connecting the camera to the computer.
Over all I recommend this camera to all levels of camera users!

A Lot of Camera for a Little Money with Poor Picture Colors.
1ST REVIEW: Wow... I'm impressed. I purchased this camera because I wanted to "downsize" from the full featured, larger digital camera I own. This camera is very easy to use -- right out of the box, without reading a manual an inch thick. Very simply to use and packs a punch in versatility. One reviewer complained about the speed in which the camera saves a picture. Look at your SD card. That's probably where the problem lies. SD cards vary in speed, with the lowest class numbers being slower. I tried taking pictures with a Lexar and a SanDisk SD cards. (Neither one of the cards had a "class" marked on them.) The SanDisk was much faster. I'm going to return that Lexar. But, the camera is definitely a keeper. I would recommend a LCD screen protector as a worthwhile addition.
2ND REVIEW: The above review was written BEFORE I downloaded pics into my computer for viewing & printing. This camera produces terrible color. I thought I had the settings incorrect, so I checked them and did a test shoot using the Coolpix L18 and a Canon Powershot S2. They are not exactly in the same class of cameras, but any camera should be able to closely reproduce the actual colors in the scene. The Coolpix was way off. Pictures shot indoors had too many yellow tones in them. And the poolside pics taken in bright sunlight made my pool look like it was overloaded with green algae, when in fact, the water was a beautiful crystal clear blue. Sorry Charlie, this camera is going back. I'll look into the small, point & shoot Canon line of cameras.
Since I edited my original review, it would not let me change my star rating. After all, I would probably rate this camera as a 2-Star. The size is nice. And I like the fact that it uses SD cards (including the new high density ones), and AA batteries, which are easily obtained. But, it performs poorly in picture quality. And, isn't that was taking a picture is all about? | | Reviewed on 2008-06-26
