Consumer Critiques

For anybody seeking at finding a decent, mid-level point-and-shoot with the look and really feel of an SLR, the Nikon Coolpix L120 is by far the most beneficial option, even with its few shortcomings!

As a semi-specialist photographer who primarily shoots film (but is slowly converting to digital) I normally have kept at least a digital PS camera with me to get those "quick" shots that I cannot get for the reason that of the time involved in setting up the shot in an SLR. My earlier camera, the Minolta DiMAGE S414 had been getting extended in the tooth and was starting to glitch. A friend gave me his Nikon Coolpix E5200 and I was right away hooked on Nikon's legendary imaging high quality. Nevertheless, the five-megapixel sensor in the Coolpix E5200 was short of what I truly required, so the identical buddy who gave me the E5200 also let me try out his Coolpix L110. I was blown away with how nicely the photographs turned out! In my quest to acquire my own Coolpix L110, I had heard back in February that Nikon was releasing the Coolpix L120, with a two-megapixel increase over the L110 and a variety of new characteristics. Having read the first evaluations of the camera, it seemed like a sure winner, so I took the plunge on March 14th of this year and secured one for myself.

Instantaneously, I was hooked on it. Ideal out of the box, this camera is a winner! The settings, user-interface, the sleek style and the nifty zoom selector on the lens barrel makes this camera worth just about every penny. In the brief time I have owned it, I have already taken around 1,200 photos with it every little thing from nature, bridges, even the sun! (with a solar filter, of course). And with its fantastic 21x optical zoom, I can photograph a automobile at much more than a quarter-mile away and be able to clearly read its license plate!

The only drawback I can see is that Nikon has left out the potential to manually control your aperture and shutter speed settings (instead, leaving that for the Nikon Coolpix P500 which I was unimpressed with). Nonetheless, those modest shortcomings are overwhelmed by the simplicity this camera gives. Itching to get into Panorama photography, without having the will need for an costly SLR with built-in panorama stitching? Think of it carried out! With this camera's Panorama-Assist function (which overlays a little portion of the image onto the screen for the subsequent shot to be composed), and the supplied Arcsoft Panorama Maker Pro 5 software, Panorama-style photography has in no way been more inexpensive. Seeking to enhance photographs with HDR-like color clarity? Look at that completed, also! This camera supplies with it built-in D-Lighting that preserves the color intensity of an image yet bringing out the details otherwise hidden within dark shadows. Also supplied, incase you do not want to edit your pictures in-camera, is Nikon's own View NX-2, which not only contains D-lighting enhancement filters, it also presents a host of other image-editing capabilities!

In short, this camera has the competitors beat! I would advocate it (I have the black version) more than anything else.

Bought this camera and loved the ease of operation and picture quality. I also have the Panasonic DMC-FZ35, which is Rather difficult. I necessary one thing easier. I learned to use this Nikon after only 1 hour of reading the manual (compared to months nevertheless attempting to figure out the Panasonic). Was uncomplicated acquiring fantastic photographs. Smile detection and Pet mode worked terrific. Sadly, my main cause for this sort of hybrid camera, is for the comfort of camera and HD video in one particular unit. Video good quality on this unit is nicely below typical. I compared it to my Panasonic - no comparison. The Panasonic's video was smooth and clear, the Nikon - grainy and jerky. I seriously wanted to preserve this camera for it is ease of use and image quality, but the poor video quality ultimately brought on me to return it. Until I uncover an quick to use camera with fine image and video, I'll continue with the months of attempting to figure out the Panasonic.

PROS: Ease of use, awesome images, smile detection, pet mode, easy to comprehend manual, price tag.

CONS: Poor video high quality
