Update to 3.8.13: at Beyond this, I have several Nikon because I always travel with at least two devices, in fact rather 3 - because unfortunately reliability "legendary", but it's over, n ' is more to the RV. Before the maturity of my warranty - so 10 months - my Coolpix loose in me having demonstrated a few weeks ago of the difficulties and strange noises before exiting the zoom. I used the device normally and the next day he refused to start "error in the optical block." When it fails, it does not expect the next day. I door, serene, the camera, Nikon, boulevard Beaumarchais in Paris and nothing was reported. Several days after Nikon sent me a letter saying that I am honored to replace my Nikon more than the price on Amazon. It explains that the device is "oxide" and he received a shock. In general, one dies of a heart attack or poisoning: but it is 2.
And on the one hand, this device had no impact otherwise we would have reported to me when I relate the device and oxidation: after 10 months, from bad components it seems impossible to oxidize components - despite the rainy weather we had. I have obviously not consider this unit as being waterproof by dipping into the Seine. The bad times Nikon is obvious and supply "replacement" more than the market price shows they want at all costs to sell the devices. For me it is clear that Nikon has penchesur the "dark side" and enters the system obsolescence programmed with lesser quality cameras - and with an attitude that is very far from the Nikon I knew.
So Nikon Coolpix prevent yourself: what became of the disposable device - except it's not the price of a disposable camera.
Reminder: with people taking pictures with their mobile and tablets: the market; cameras is in freefall - which would justify the unacceptable attitude of Nikon to continue to exist. So either you continue to pollute the planet with cameras that you swing after 1 year or less - or you use your phone, which will be served at least a peekaboo all year - while a camera is not used.
When the 510 goes down, I have redeemed another - after a week he had the same error "errueur in lamp assembly" that which has just been sent to Nikon. So the P510 and the P520 since this is almost the same presents a crippling defect of reliability.
