Creepy optics, acceptable quality

Visually, this camera takes some getting pure kitsch. With the color per se, I could live well, who still likes me, but this leaves kitschy ornament front next to the lens is to shudder. Little girls would certainly like that, me and my husband feel as something of a shame.
But well, that's beside the point only once basically as a matter of taste, more important is the processing and image quality, handling and software.
The camera is very small and looks in men hands a bit first lost. The processing corresponds to the standard you would expect for the price - and this is basically already for all other characteristics of this camera. It is certainly not expensive and at the level you should measure it well.
The image quality is for such a "time-draufhalten camera" perfectly fine, especially colors they are pretty strong and bright again, which makes especially for holiday pictures for joy.
Operation is simple, since self-explanatory, as there are by my side nothing to complain about.
What bothers me is the slowness of the camera, which does not even make my previous devices admittedly better. Who has a good smartphone, has quickly accustomed to the possibility of time to make up a snapshot, this is not really possible, because the camera is taking too long until it triggers.
The Nikon Coolpix S2900 has a reliable average device that can safely enjoy using the beginners, but for advanced skiers and Vielfotografierer it is nothing - but they will probably not be at the price and features.
