Fit right for my pocket and my pocketbook
Great price at Amazon.com. After taxes this camera would have been $100 more expensive at my local Electronics Retailer (whose initials are BB in case you were wondering). I had a chance to check it out there and I instantly loved it. Great internal optics (with optical zoom). I have noticed some of the spotting in low light situations with the flash but this is a natural occurance with many cameras in low light with a flash. I will attribute its higher noticability on this camera with the close proximity of the flash to the optics on the same plane (they are both in the same corner of the cam). It is worse than normal on this cam, but, as I said, a symptom of low-light flash photography. Some will be better than others, not a big deal for me but it might be for some people.
I bought the Nikon case with it, and I think that this case is a great travel companion. I want to try and find a hard case so that I can carry it more informally in my pocket without worrying about it.
I have noticed that it does take faster pics with a high-speed SD card (I bought a SanDisk Ultra II 60x also from Amazon.com). Worth it in my opinion and it does aleviate some of the concerns of other people reviewing the camera.
Don't waste your money....
I bought this camera back in September, and would not recommend it to anyone! The quality of the pictures is hit or miss. Some come out great, some are foggy, some are too dark, etc. I'm not willing to gamble like that with my vacation pictures! Not what I expected out of a Nikon. This camera also claims to have a built in red eye reduction feature...YEAH right! Every pic I take seems to have red eye. I have to manually take the red eye out myself with a photo editing program. Would not recommend this camera to anyone. Although very slim and lightweight, the quality of the pictures are just not up to par. I think I'm going to try a Cannon next.
