Customer Review

As an amateur photographer I naturally want to introduce my children ever closer to my hobby. So I'm always looking for a good, small and simple camera with no frills, the one not being used anyway. You must be especially lightweight and easy to use and very take good pictures.
The Nikon comes with battery, AC adapter, manual and wrist strap. Plug charger cable and away you go after a short charging time. The battery life is quite long, so is more than enough for an amateur photographer.
The camera comes with a small memory which is enough for 5 images with the default settings. That's not much, but a quite positive aspect because many cameras are manufactured without memory.

The camera works in spite of its only 120 grams and a high plastic content quality, extremely compact, is very handy and also fit without major problems in the shirt pocket. The input or switch is built into the camera body, so that there is no increase. The ornament on the front is pleasant to look at, for me would not necessarily have been necessary, acts prominently on every case with our (light) blue camera. The zoom is operated with a small wheel, which at the top has a small increase, which is simple and very accurate. From the size not very big surprise the camera but with a relatively large screen, which is almost entirely on the back of the camera.

With the button halfway, the focus is then set, which after a short period went like itself out of hand. The quality here is consistantly good. Even for images with a lot of movement (football game) the photos were sharp and not blurred. The automatic mode makes photography a breeze, since self-employed the correct settings are made from the camera. Clear is not every picture perfectly, but the failure rate is very low.

The quality is really quite outstanding. So for each entry it is sufficient. The default setting of the image quality is easy to customize, so that even bigger photos have a very good quality.

The possibility of using the free app to transfer the images works without problems, this was tested with an iPhone. Of course, the app has still room for improvement, however, has yet some ways and works well.
The video recordings are for a camera of this type really good, especially the sharpness setting works when zooming in very short time. To me that makes rare video footage that is sufficient.

In total there are in the camera not too many options and gimmicks, but it does what it is intended, namely beautiful photos.
Conclusion: A great entry-level camera, the other allows quick and easy. I was convinced it.
