Nikon Coolpix 8700 digital camera

Pros Quality pics, Macro performance, Very high quality Long lens.
Cons Poor low light performance. Blurry pics at full zoom
Recommended it? Yes

I purchased a Nikon 8700 because I needed a compact camera with a long lens and quality pictures. This is a lot to ask from a camera. On most counts, the 8700 delivers and in general I am pleased with the camera, with one significant exception and a couple of minor gripes.

Coolpix 8700 vs D70

byhsdv200 Aug 15, 2004
8 Helpfuls 9 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros 280mm zoom, compact, ED glass, movie mode
Cons Slow shutter lag, slow ISO speed, slow, slow, slow
Recommended it? No

Don't make the mistake I made. I used the 8700 for three months and took about 1000 pics in every situation possible. I then sold the 8700 and purchased the D70 kit. For the same amount of money, The D70 blows the 8700 away in speed and ease of use. The speed of the D70 (200-1600)is the difference... Read full review »

Pros Takes OK pictures
Cons Camera construction is shoddy and Nikon won't stand by their warranty.
Recommended it? No

The camera takes decent pictures but I was using it at my son's birthday party and went to take a picture and saw the on/off/shutter release button was hanging from a wire. The camera hadn't left my hands and was hanging from a strap. I never forced it, just turned it on normally and the thing came... Read full review »

Pros GREAT pictures! Compact! Once you get past the instructions, it's really easy.

Recommended it? Yes

I've spent the last few years ALMOST buying a digital camera. When the new wave of 8Mb cameras came out, it was my wife who said: "NOW! Do it now!"
So after reading every available review on epinions and slowly working my way through newsgroups I finally made my decision. I couldn't be... Read full review »

Pros High mega-pixels, excellent zoom. Easy set up. Rechargable batteries last long.
Cons Need to buy a bigger memory card if you work with high resolution photos.
Recommended it? Yes

After using 4 different digital cameras in the past year, this is by far the best digital camera I have found. The pixel quality is amazing. The zoom is exceptional. The photo quality is suitable for printing up to 8 x 10s at 300 dpi. If you want to use it for just personal use and printing at your... Read full review »

I hate this camera and could stomp on it!

Pros Macro setting is great. Super amount of features for the insanely picky camera person.
Cons SLLLOWWWWWWWWWW, slow ,slow, slow - shutter speed so slow it is mind boggling
Recommended it? No

I'm so angry I bought this camera. It cost a lot of money and it is so not worth it. I bought the camera to take pictures of my new baby and it was okay back then. But now that she is 18 months old and actually moves around (imagine that), the shutter lag is unbelievably bothersome. I have missed... Read full review »

Pros Picture quality and zoom.
Cons Slow shutter and I would recommend an external flash.
Recommended it? Yes

This is the best camera I have ever owned! The picture quality it great and the camera offers you a lot of manual control. The menus do take a little getting used to, so it is not every used friendly at first, but you will get used to it. This is a great prosumer camera, and you will not be... Read full review »
