Focus issues

Just bought. The blue tooth is cool. But focusing far away Is a issue. The instructions that came with the camera didn’t go into details.The photos below show how far this lens goes. I was standing on my patio and took these. In the wide show you can hardly make out the apartments and the water tower!

Can’t transfer pictures

overall a good camera, just not a huge fan of the lack of auto focus and transferring pictures is such a hassle.

Great camera for the price

Great camera for the price. Great pictures in low light and action shots come out well. Nice point and shoot capabilities.

Was able to get a good shot of the moon

Fantastic camera so far

Fantastic camera so far. Takes a little bit to get in focus sometimes. But the pictures are great quality.

Great super zoom!

Good Camera for Relatively Cheap Price

Pretty good image quality for the price, has a bit of a problem with motion blur though. To show how far it zooms in, I managed to take a picture of a jet.

This is the first time I have purchased a Nikon as I have always had Kodak cameras. This camera is great it takes awesome pictures and very easy to operate. Great buy.

Great buy.

I love my new camera! It came quickly and it is exactly as described. Great buy! I only wished that the lens cap cord had been included.

Love it

The focus can take a minute to get to focus on subject but takes really good pics im enjoying learning with this camera!

this is a good point and shoot camera but if you want to …

this is ok and i really should have just done my homework on cameras. i was looking for a dslr but didn’t want to throw down the money.

Love My Camera

I do believe I am in love with this camera. Have had it a short while so the more knowledgeable I become the more likely I will give it five stars.

Five Stars

Nice, quality camera for the $$. Has great zoom, clear, stable photos. Great camera for still or action shots.

Camera strap is useless.

Update: The camera strap that comes with this camera is a POS. The strap loops into the metal bars attached to the camera and a slide is used to secure it.
