I got my Nikon Coolpix two days before leaving for a two week trip to Thailand. My son-in-law actually advised me to get this camera for it's simplicity and easy to use qualities. As usual,I am always late in getting organized. I ordered the camera from Amazon and thought there would be no way I'd get the camera before I left. It arrived in plenty of time. I had plenty of time on the plane to 'study' the instructions. Finally, in Bangkok and ready to shot pictures.
I had a blast on the trip and a ball using my new Nikon. It is so easy to use and takes great pictures. I have a wonderful pictoral history of my Thailand trip. I have clear, beautiful pictures of elephants and a cyrstal clear photos of ants marching one by one on top of a ledge. What fun. I'm not technical genius when it comes to new gadgets, but this Nikon turned me into a Ansel Adams, in my mind.
Come over I'll show you the big elephants and the tiny ants.

Very happy with the purchase. Have yet to explore all of its capabilities but very easy to use and has produced many quality shots.

I had a Mediterranean cruise with stops in Rome, Naples (Pompeii),Athens, Ephesus and Egypt coming up and wanted a new, small camera with a wide-angle lens. This Nikon was great. I was hoping to get good photos in a point and shoot that I could fit in my pocket without fear of dropping it. I was not disappointed. The landscape photos are superb. The details were exceptional, even enlarged. You can see the sweat on my brow by the pyramids in the 105 degree heat. Great value for the price.

I bought this camera specifically to get better photographs in low light, close-up conditions because from what I've read it's one of the best point-and-shoots you can get for that. Both the photo and video quality fulfill my expectations. It's amazing how fast and how much the technology is improving!
Overall, I think this is a great point-and-shoot camera for low-light close-ups.

I love this camera. I also bought it to replace an aging digital (Kodak). I did a lot of research because for me $300+ is a lot of money. For my purposes, which is home inspection pictures, I could not be more pleased!
It is THE fastest starting, compact digital point and shoot out camera out there right now. The speed of startup is very important to me. The old camera took about 7+ secs. to start. This one is about 1.5 like others have said but, not all the functions are available for another second or so depending on which features you have enabled. It shuts off just as fast. I turn the camera on and off a lot and it adds up over the course of a day.
The other nice thing about this camera is that it is almost a pro-sumer camera. It's a great blend of a high end digital SLR features and the ease of point and shoot. I know it's not a $2,000 SLR so pros please don't blast me. What I mean is that it takes excellent photos in a wide range of situations, automatically. Auto is the setting I use most because, unlike a lot of other cameras, other Coolpix included, it does do what it is supposed to do. Odd huh? Funny when that is the exception instead of the norm.
That said, it is easy enough to use right away and has list of features deep enough for anyone wanting to manually set any or all the the controls manually. There is an automatic setting, the one I use most of the time, which is like any other auto setting people are used to but, there is also an *automatic* SCENE setting. So it's not just inside vs outside or flash vs no flash. No guessing or fiddling with "Is this a sport shot or a back lit situation?". That will change to the best scene mode available, automatically. It's all the cool features I was ever promised on other cameras, delivered.
It also has an automatic lens cover which is awesome. My other one was always clanging around one way or another. Putting it on or taking it off sometimes I would accidentally touch the front of the lens and it drove me nuts!
The stabilization is also very good. I shake a lot when taking photos and this camera has two stabilization methods. You can use one or the other or both or none. Depending on how you set the camera up it, works very well. I used to have to carry a mono pod with me all the time. I now leave it at home.
The panorama feature is also one of the best and easiest I have ever used. It overlays the last shot to the next in the LCD as you take the series of photos. It can pan left, right, up or down. Very cool!
The only con I can think of is that the LCD screen on the back of the camera is flush with the back of the case, like an iPod, and I am afraid I'll forget and set it down on its back and scratch the screen. I am looking for one of those silicone skin covers to give it a smidgen of inset to prevent this from happening. So no worries there for me.
Aside from that one issue the camera is just great and I am very happy with my purchase.
Whether you want to take no hassle pictures or dig into all the settings available (which you don't have to) it really is a wonderful camera!
There is so much more I could say but you're probably tired of reading by now. :0)
PS. After owning the camera for a week I bought a nice Nikon neoprene case fitted just for this camera for $15 at Target that works like a charm!
