Customer Review

As usual Nikon offers great quality. The camera fits comfortably in your hand and looks in their garish-red design of unusually good. Operation is simple and intuitive and can also understand without guidance. The design possibilities are immense, almost too big in my opinion. Under 'creative effects' can do with his pictures all sorts, such as soft focus or sepia, as well as Extra Rich colors, Toy Camera Effect and Cross development (in order to understand all that it takes probably but a guide). I think this has been a bit exaggerated. It may be that it's sometimes nice to play around a bit, but here there are so many ways that the menus are partly already overloaded significantly and you have to search until you find what you need or want. And honestly, who needs a toy camera effect?

What also bothered me a little, is that one is asked by default after each photo, if you want to change the picture with creative effects. I thought that was pretty annoying. I then found out that this can also leave, but had to for a while looking at the menu until I've found the right command. Here I would have found it happier if nothing happens by default and you can turn to the effects on demand, but since the developers were too in love with their new features ;-) Generally I think that it is enough to follow up such things on the computer, I need that is not already on the camera, but of course that intuition thing.

I also found that the camera is relatively difficult to do with focusing and this takes a long time. I have two small children who are often silent, and with them I made the experience that you focus with light pressure often takes too long and that the immediate Pressing often leads to blurred images. Depending on the setting, you can shorten the times already, but I'm not really satisfied with respect to the speed.

What I loved, is a program that I have not known so far. There are the usual automatic setting and adjustment of programs for special situations: Portrait, Panorama, Backlight, Night, etc. But what I previously did not know, is a setting in between, in which the camera automatically selects the appropriate scene mode.

But the most important are probably the images themselves and here I find the camera already convincing. If you have enough time to wait for the focus, then see the images really great. The videos are very good both in picture and sound. With certain restrictions, so thoroughly recommended.
