Nikon Coolpix L330 Digital Camera (Black)

• This seems to be a very decent camera though it did seem like it had been rewrapped or repackaged in a fairly unsealed box. It apparently is okay, however, and has no blemishes or defects.I own a lot of digital cameras and my wife nearly killed me dead for buying another one. I have everything from el cheapos to tiny ones, to two Canon SLRs. Before I retired I was a photographer for thirty years plus with film cameras, mostly Minoltas and Ricoh.The main thing about any camera is the lens size and quality. There is a mathematical formula called Dawe\'s limit which involves lens size and resolution. Resolution is nlt magnification. Resolution is the ability to separate two close points. The higher the resolution, the closer the points can be and still be separated. This is why astronomical telescopes have to be so huge. The magnification of these telescopes, if they aqre located on the earth\'s surface, is limited to something below 1000x in linear magnification (not area). Assuming that the lenses are of similar quality, you are never, never, never going to get as good a picture with you tablet as with a camera with even a reasonably sized lengs.To give an example of resolution before moving on: you have pocket size binoculars thaqt give you ten times linear magnification and they are convenient and fine. If you take a ten power binocular with a fifty millimeter lens, however, you will immediately see the difference in image sharpness and crispness and ability to see detail. I have a nine power binocular with sixty three millimeter lenses which I took to aq bay along with a ten power fifty millimeter pair. Despite being a power less than the ten power, the sixty three millimeter lenses of the bigger binocular allow me to see individual lumps of coal on a coal barge moored four miles away. The smaller, ten power pair, did not show individual lumps and a pocket ten power pair would have revealed far less at that distance. This is resolution.This camera has a fairly decent lens if you want good photos.It has over 20 mp which is more than enough if the sensor is of decent size. To understand this, you have to understand that the CCD, the sensor that takes the place of film, has a certain size. A twenty megapixel lens might not be all that great if the actually sensor is only the size of your little fingernail. It is like film size in film cameras. You may have the same resolution film in both cameras but you will get a heck of a lot better large print from a thirty five millimeter camera than from a little spy camera or 8mm film. Size does matter both with film and sensor size and with lens diameter.They should really standardize cameras to the thirty five millimeter frame size and give you some number based on both sensor size and megapixels but they don\'t. Given your choice--bigger is far better.This thing takes for triple A batteries by the way and they come included though one of mine had popped out of the packing.I would recommend this camera and it will probably serve you better than a tiny point and shoot model. It is not very large or bulky at all so don\'t expect to get something like a full size or even a compact SLR>Happy shooting.
• I bought this camera almost a year ago, and so far, have not done much with it other than some test shots. Prior to buying, one reviewer said she could get 960 shots before changing batteries, and while some people don\'t like the fact that it uses AA batteries, that was actually a factor that caused me to get this camera. Who wants a specific re-chargeable battery pack that might be discontinued at some point? Not me. Just change out 4 AA batteries and toss the old ones in nearest trash can. I have not noticed any delay in auto-focus. I still have original batteries in camera, as I have not used it much, the internal clock keeps pretty good time. It came with a usb cord to attach to computer, which is still in the box, but I removed the memory card, put into my little Kodak, and attached to computer, no problems up-loading photos, which were sharp enough to cut your eyes! I took some shots in small room at night with only a small lamp on, without flash, and then repeated the shot with flash, and there was very little to no difference, both were sharp. I was amazed at the lighting and sharpness with no flash, indoors at night. I have taken some very sharp outdoor shots from patio, with no flash in bright daylight, which came out fantastic. Prior to this camera, I had 2 little Kodaks, which still work great, one of which is a 7.1 megapixel, which I have had shots made into 24 x 36 posters, and came out beautifully. Some of the reviewers on here probably got defective duds, hence the reviews they left, but I definitely think this is worth the money. If you think the camera strap will break, keep a tighter grip on the camera! Several reviewers mentioned blurry shots with zoom, but another reviewer was dead-on when he said you have to use a tripod or brace against tree or rail. A free hand using zoom will give you a blurry shot with most any camera! I have not noticed that the batteries drain quickly, my 2 Kodaks that only use 2 AA batteries each have decent battery life with average Duracell or Energizer. I have not used my camera on a moving subject, so I will defer to reviewers who say this model is not the best for action or sports, but for any type of stills, indoor, outdoor, various lighting conditions, you can\'t go wrong with this one.Right after my first review, I played around with the zoom outdoors, and I did indeed see what other reviewers meant about the auto focus taking a few seconds. However, you need a tripod or other way to steady the camera for zoom, otherwise your shots will blur every time.5 seconds to wait for auto focus is not going to kill me. This is probably not best camera for sports or fast action, but if you don\'t need it for that, then this one is great.
