Nikon L3

Pros: Very easy to use. Great features.

Cons: None found yet.

The Bottom Line: Easy to use. Excellent price for a good camera. Features one would usually expect in a software.

Review: I bought the Coolpix L3 at Circuit City for $179 and am so happy with it! The batteries last for a very long time even when using the flash heavily! I must disagree with anything that anyone has said about the shutter lag on any setting (other than ...

Pros: Small size, Nikon optics, very good photos.

Cons: Image stabilization not included.

Review: I bought this Nikon for a gift for my nephew in Europe. We spent Eastertime with him and had ample opportunity to evaluate the camera. The camera has a 5mp capacity and a 3x optical zoom. Basically all the average photographer needs. The camera takes ...

Pros: Ease of Use, 5.1 Mega pixel, Video, Image Modes

Cons: Shutter Lag, Flash Quality, Quality of Night Images

The Bottom Line: The Coolpix L3 is an excellent camera for someone who is just getting started with a digital camera!

Review: My dad bought me a Coolpix L3 for my birthday this year. I had been wanting a digital camera for a long time but never really wanted to pony up the $200+ that it would cost to get a halfway decent one. I was pretty excited to finally have one and I've ...

Pros: Picture quality; ease of use; Choice of settings; Good battery life; Price.

Cons: Shutter lag; 5 pixels is outdated.

The Bottom Line: Great camera with all the features you need to take great photos.

Review: I purchased the Nikon Coolpix L3 as my first digital camera purchase. I previously owned a Nikon and had it for twenty years before allowing it to retire. I was given an HP 3 mega pixel camera from a relative that broke within 6 months so I made my first ...

Pros: small, lightweight, good price

Cons: slow shutter speed, low megapixel

The Bottom Line: I would recommend this camera to someone for basic use

Review: After our 3 mega-pixel camera broke, we were in the market for a new digital camera. I did some online research and found the L3 for $110 and thought it was a great deal. I knew Nikon was a quality name and felt it was a safe purchase. We have had ...

Pros: compact body, great picture quality, easy to use

Cons: lag between shots

The Bottom Line: Great little camera for most situations. Fantastic in good lighting, slower in low light/flash situations. EXCELLENT picture quality.

Review: I bought the Nikon CoolPix 4800 a couple of years ago, and absolutely adore it. I *love* the 8.3x zoom, and the picture quality is fantastic. The only drawback is that it's too large to take everywhere. So when I had a few extra dollars, and was ...

Pros: Small. Good picture quality if you know how to set it.

Cons: Lag time taking pics. Menu options can be confusing.

Review: I personally can't say enough good things about this camera. For what it is, it does the job for me which is taking decent resolution pictures on the fly. I use it at work and hunting. It is very durable as evidenced by me running over it with my utility ...

Pros: Easy to use - good pics - indoor and out. Videos are great!

Cons: Shutter lag is occasionally an issue.

Review: Shutter lag is a bit of an issue but overall the quality of pics is super and I love the mini-video feature! Batteries (I buy lithium) are long-lasting. I have no trouble with indoor or outdoor pics. Software for transfer to computer WORKS and is easy ...

Pros: small size, large LCD, price, cool features

Cons: SLOW shutter lag in low light, no viewfinder, difficulty focusing in low lighting

The Bottom Line: Buy if it you're taking bright outdoor shots and also don't mind the indoor/low lighting shutter lag.

Review: I am a photographer and use Nikon cameras exclusively. My main camera is a Nikon D-SLR (the D70). On a recent business trip my husband lost my compact Coolpix 5200. I won't go into the details, but finances won't allow me to replace the 5200 with the ...

Pros: Clear pictures, excellent lens, light, good user interface

Cons: Shutter lag means missing candid photos.

Review: I'll agree that the number one thing I don't like about this camera is the shutter lag - it can take several seconds to focus (more in low light), and that means some missed photo ops if you're dealing with children, animals or motion. The quality of ...
