Nikon p80 It is simply my point and click. This might be to complex for the entry level digital user because like other reviewers I use a Cannon. Yesterday at a swim party I used the L400 lens for the distance face shots, but I used the p80 for the cake and presents shots. To me Photoshop is as necessary for photos as a good lens. I know I lose a lot of shooters when I add all the complicating issues. This little camera is very light and is in my purse at all times unlike my Cannon. I use it to all o...

Great Value for Price - More than Just a Point N Shot I have this product for two weeks and gave it a full workout over the Memorial Day Holiday. I am very pleased with the image quality and features. I shot with all modes and felt that it delivered what it promised for this price range. My ony recommendation is that the flash should pop up automatically when it is needed and the lens cover should be built in much like when the Panasonic went from the TZ1 to the TZ3 which I also own. I would also have liked a hot shoe for flash and the ability to...

GREAT Camera! AMAZING Pictures! This is a GREAT camera that takes AMAZING pictures! And the 18x zoom is unbelievable! If you are not quite ready to buy the SLR professional, then this is DEFINATELY the camera for you! I did A LOT of research before I bought this camera, and I LOVE IT! The picture quality is AMAZING- even at a VERY FAR zoom! It is CRYSTAL CLEAR!!! I am shocked! You will not go wrong with this camera if you are wanting a great camera with AMAZINGLY CLEAR pictures, then this is for you!

Nikon Coolpix P80 is a Great Mini SLR The Nikon Coolpix P80 is the digital camera I wish I could have bought five years ago, but cameras with these features did not exist, and if they did, the prices would have been out of reach for the casual photographer.
This compact digital SLR has an astounding 18x zoom lens, 10 Megapixel resolution, a large LCD screen and a bright through-the-lens viewfinder. In addition to several photo resolutions, the user can choose from several different aspect ratios--16:9 TV, 3:4 TV, differe...

Shoot For The Moon If you don't care to know about the art of photography and you don't like to read manuals, don't buy this camera and you can stop reading right here. Otherwise, read on.
I can take any camera and take bad shots with it. But if I use most modern cameras to their full potential, I tend to end up with great shots. By that I mean using correct focus, exposure compensation when necessary, and selecting the proper ISO, shutter speed, and aperture for the situation. Those are just the ba...

Excellent, Just Excellent Just got this camera last week. We are novice users and found this camera to be very easy to use. The instructions that came with the camera are great and the in-camera instructions are excellent as well. We took our new camera for a test drive at our kids soccer games on Saturday. The shots we were able to get are FANTASTIC!!! We can actually see our kids in action, up close and in focus. The sports mode is wonderful. We really enjoyed zooming in on the picture after we took it to see ev...

Please learn to use camera. This camera is an excellent piece of equipment from Nikon. You must learn to use it before you critize or return it. It has a nice sharp focus. The streaks you see or read about in the samples or prior reviews are due to the user having the exposure compensation on a positive setting. This makes the picture much brighter than it needs to be. The compensation results in over exposed and streaky shots. Please note the situation you are in and beware; for example if you are in direct sunlight you ...

SEISHA SEICHU This is what practitioners of Kyudo, the Japanese martial archery, seek: "correct hitting is in correct shooting". And this is how this camera makes you feel after mastering and getting used to its controls and abilities.
After months of research I decided and bought this ultrazoom. SLRs take better pictures but I refuse to carry all the extra equipment when on vacation. NIKON P5100 was the choice on the other end but it lacked both the x18 tele and the wide end zoom.

Feeling Better! I'm a Nikon fan, and saw this as a economical way of getting DSLR-like features. In particular the "super-zoom" functionality and sports shot setting -- seemingly perfect for the games my children play -- motivated me to pull the trigger on this purchase.
I'll leave the in-depth analysis of the camera to others who are more knowledgeable but what has me disappointed are the streaks of light that showed up on several hundred photographs I took, using the high speed continuous setting ...

Average Image Quality, some quirks I tried this camera this week, and found myself returning it within a couple days. In all honesty, I had read good things and I had hoped perhaps this would serve me as a bridge camera between my Canon G9 and my dSLR camera.
First, it is nicely made, and feels good in the hand. It works smoothly, and is relatively quiet during operation. The lens is high quality, and it has the standard Nikon layout on the selection dial. Curiously, it maintains the separate setting on the dial for SE...
