  • the Nikon P&S that punches way above its weight the Nikon P&S that punches way above its weight
LIKES: This waterproof P&S conceals a host of really interesting features. Like its little brother the W100, its a rugged camera that defies water [just follow the instructions, and don't take the toaster into the tub, OK?] • I can pull serious b&w images by desaturating the color menu, adjust exposures via the +/- thumb wheel. For the tech-weenies out there the RGB pixel pile in photoshop showed all heaps as exactly the same. • Color can be as lush or modulated as you want, like when shooting people under tree canopies and that green is doing things to their faces etc. • Native image size is 14x11 at 300dpi. The Bluetooth upload to your camera is a half-size jpg ready for IG, FB or whatever web destination. DISLIKES: • Zoom tends to interpolate pixels. Stick w native wide angle. • The SnapBridge software is a bit clumsy on install, don't rush it. Directions are cryptic. It took me several tries. • Camera only came with a neck strap. This is the only time I've ever used a wrist-strap, and I found mine attached to a junk camera in a thrift shop for $3. MEH: The usual clutter of post-effects. I ignore them. If I want a glaze, I'll get a donut. Facial recognition? didn't use it. ... show more

  • Great little camera.
I've always loved my Coolpix 2100, small with great pictures, easier to take on trips than my SLR. Unfortunately, it didn't like the spray at Niagara falls and died. I bought this W300 to take its place, especially since it's waterproof. It's easy to use and takes great pictures and video. Higher resolution than the 2100 (16 MP vs 2.1), very crisp and clean. I haven't had opportunity to take underwater or snorkeling yet, but am very pleased with Nikon quality. ... show more

  • Good camera, but get insurance
So far so good. I had the AW120 prior to this but that one suffered water damage. This one is working well so far and has all the modes from previous versions and more. It also comes with Snapbridge support so it can automatically transfer photos to your mobile device for easy sharing. It is built tough, takes good photos, and works well in the water. I would still recommend getting some insurance to replace the camera if water ever damages it. ... show more

  • Can't Go Wrong with Quality Can't Go Wrong with Quality
Looking for a waterproof camera and decided to try a knock-off GoPro (latest Dragon brand) since I wasn’t interested in the overhyped, and overpriced tiny models. As expected, I was severely disappointed and returned. I only had two true choices for the task of a compact, self-contained unit, the TG-5 or W300. The Nikon COOLPIX W300 is simple to configure and operate. If you want point and click, then this is easily done with good results. You also have some manual control of settings and may want to view the on-line manual to see if it can do what you want. It’s small enough for a daily carry camera or if you don’t want to lug around an SLR. Based on specifications, features, reviews and research I believe I made the better choice for my needs. I mainly got it for 4K videos and does an impressive job at that; looks great on the 4K big screen while streaming from my NAS. Don’t cheat yourself and opt for the highest settings on video or pictures since storage is cheap. I used a 128GB V30 SDXC card that never missed a beat. You’ll get about 45 minutes worth of video at that resolution so you may want to get additional batteries based on your usage. I see approximately 32GB per hour of footage. I tested the camera at home under water and didn’t see any issues with leaking. I’ve taken it on trips to pools, beaches and snorkeling with no leaking. Make sure you read the warnings on sealing the camera before water use and you shouldn’t have problems. The TG-5 has two compartments to seal and potentially leak where the W300 has one. For some reason I had an issue with temporary fogging on the LCD screen when parasailing which cleared up after landing. Contacted Nikon support and told to send in for repair but ended up exchanging for a new unit since I was still under my return window. Those “action” cameras are too tiny to handle and not worth the trouble. The size of this camera is a good compromise and comfortably attaches to my mountain bike with a standard mount although the novelty of watching bumpy rides wears off quickly. It’s not that the image stabilization is an issue, just that being there is much better than watching it on any screen which can be nauseating to some. Here are some early unaltered samples from this camera. - - - Had to decrease video resolution from 3840x2160 to 1920x1080 since amazon upload was destroying the quality. - - - Either the new uploaded video didn't replace the original or the quality of amazon's re-encoding is still killing the actual video quality. ... show more

  • Excellent Camera
The quality is outstanding. I am taking pictures at Coney Island I shot the New Year’s Day polar bear swim. Was amazed how well it worked. I didn’t want to take my canon EOS 5D Mark IV in the water It’s a slightly panoramic image. The skin tones are great and the lens is very sharp. It also shoots at 300dpi giving a high quality print. I printed them on Epson Lustre paper 11.7x16.5 paper. Image size is 14 horizontal super sharp ... show more

Maybe I was expecting too much but I was little disappointed. I purchased this for a trip thinking it would be perfect because of the compact size and the zoom. The zoom is very disappointing, doesn't get nearly as close up as I had hoped. The wide angle was decent for landscapes and I also liked the macro shots I got from this. However, my 2 year old Android phone (Nexus 6P) often took better shots in some situations. The controls were easy to figure out yet still kind of clunky. I never could get panorama mode to work, I had to rely on my Android for those shots which it does easily with almost no effort. The Snapbridge app is not a good experience either, maybe I just expected it to do more. Plus, seems to be a major battery drainer as well. I just uninstalled it as it wasn't worth the frustration. ... show more

  • Phenomenal performance in a handy package.
I have ruined cameras shooting stills or video in the rain, but never again. This waterproof unit is excellent! I use it for stills and videos on land, and IN THE SEA. I so a local cable access TV show in my city and have produced excellent results when shooting segments IN A POOL or IN THE OCEAN! I covered a US Marine Corps League Polar Plunge fund raiser event on a beach at Cape Cod, Massachusetts... It was 10 degrees (F) and a medium surf. A young man agreed to carry the camera in video mode on a selfie stick when he ran and plunged into the water and ran OUT even faster... All captured in brilliant video and sound giving my viewers an up close feel for doing such a Polar Plunge. I have a lot of professional Nikon camera's and lenses but I always carry this as a back-up! It's never let me down..... ... show more

  • We use this camera out in the field on jobs!
We have used this series of cameras for many years. They are tough and take the punishment that happens during a home inspection. We get about 3 years of hard use out of them. We average about 200 pictures per job and we do about 300 jobs a year.. Do the math! They are great little cameras.
