  • Very Good Built-in Functions
Color: Red
The Coolpix L22 is a 12 MP camera for people who like to take good quality pictures and edit them in the camera and on a computer but are not interested in making complicated camera adjustments. It comes with a USB cable that allows transfer directly from camera to computer, a hand strap, two temporary batteries, computer photo manager software, a quick start booklet, and a CD with detailed operating information. The 3 inch monitor allows an image to be visible even in bright light and in the dark. I took it to the beach on a clear sunny day, and even with the sun shining directly on the monitor, I could see the image clearly. In the dark the display is brightly lit. There is a selection of several languages for display messages on the monitor. Date and time including time zones can be set. Pictures can be played back so the photo shoot of the day can be observed and edited. There is a one finger zoom control (best for right handed people) on the top right of the camera. All you have to do is focus and shoot after selecting a zoom size. It has an automatic face recognition feature that puts the face in focus when you point. The camera also allows you to make "movies." The Coolpix has five shooting modes: Easy Auto Mode, Scene Mode, Smart Portrait, Movie, and Auto Mode (more flexible options). It has a built in flash, self timer, macro setting for close ups, and exposure compensation that brightens or darkens the photo depending on ambient light conditions. You can keep the Coolpix on Easy Auto Mode and use it in most situations. But you can click on many specialty settings in a handy menu by selecting Scene Mode. Examples of these specialty settings include: Portrait, Landscape, Sports, Night portrait, Party/indoor, Beach/snow (the one I used at the beach), Sunset, Dusk/dawn, Night landscape, Close-up, Food, Museum, Fireworks show, Copy (black and white), Backlight (for an object in front of a bright background), and Panorama assist. The Coolpix L122 package is designed for quick learning of the camera's function. The Quick Start will get you going, but the detailed information and examples on the CD Manual will make you an expert on the camera in an hour. Once you know all about it, you realize it is the perfect camera for travel. My wife is a tour guide and is usually very busy on trips. She likes to take a lot of pictures and does not have time to make complex camera adjustments. She will be going as a passenger on a trip to China in Spring, and she will be able to use the point and shoot and special settings on the strictly controlled tour. This is an outstanding camera that was shipped on time and arrived in perfect condition. It was offered at a very affordable price. I give it my highest recommendation. ... show more

  • You get what you pay for...
Color: Red
We originally purchased the Nikon Coolpix L22 for our son's birthday present. I purchased it over the Thanksgiving day weekend, even though his birthday isn't until February. Amazon did a great job. The camera arrived in just a couple days. Love that super saver shipping. I just packed the box up into our closet to wait until the birthday party. Fast Forward 3 months. We're in the middle of a 12 year old's birthday party... and he wants to try out his new camera. We took it out of the box and... the battery latch is defective and completely broken off.. It won't hold the batteries in no matter what we try. I then called support, explained my issue and pay to send it to them. About 2 weeks later I get an invoice in the mail telling me if I want my camera fixed I have to pay 70$ That was almost what we paid for the camera NEW! I had them send the camera back to us. I was very disappointed. After doing many more web searches I have found that this issue is very common in the "Coolpix" line of cameras.(In fact google "battery door latch" and the first result is about a Nikon Coolpix... many of the following results are as well) Now on to the technical side. Once I got the camera back I used some electrical tape and taped the battery latch door shut so that I could do some side by side comparison's. Compared to my Panasonic Lumix DMC-FS3 8.1 Megapixel it fell short in every test I made with it. Low light shots where blurry, there was a significant amount of noise in the images, and the colors appeared dull in comparison. The video was dull and quite grainy. The sound quality on the video was low and tinny. The only bright spot on the camera was the menu's were easy to navigate and simple to operate. On the Nikon the on/off was a push button and took over 2 seconds to power up, and to actually focus and take a "good" picture in "easy mode" it was more like 5 - 7 seconds.(fastest = 5, slowest = 10) The Panasonic on the other hand has an on/off slider and was taking 3 - 4 seconds for a power-up shot. In the size department the L22 is pretty large for a "point and shoot" it was much larger than the Panasonic. For Menu's between the two. I liked the layout of the Nikon. At first glance it was easy to setup "favorite modes" so you could easily switch your camera between Auto, Easy Auto, Video, and 1 preset mode. But in function it was very slow. You'd push the button and nothing would happen. Press it a second time and watch the menu's flash up, then down again. It just wasn't very fast. The Panasonic took a bit more work getting the presets enabled, but it was very quick. Over all, based on it's performance I'd give it a rating of 2. Based on the poorly designed battery latch, and the poor reception we received from Nikon support... I will be giving this product a 0. And I doubt I will be purchasing another Nikon. ... show more
