Rating: - Best wide angle point and shoot
I have been a loyal nikon customer for years. I have gone through 3 other nikons, always upgrading. when I first picked up this camera the quality of the product and it's images blew past that of every camera on display.

I really enjoy this camera from the moment i put the batteries on. It really has a nice lcd screen shiny and visible under the sun. It also starts quite fast and also shoots quite fast, i think because of the DIGIC III processor. But the most amazing part is the 28-105 mm lens, which gives large flexibility especiaaly in small places for group photos.
The camera has quality material which you feel it when you touch. There is also an extra button near the 3" lcd screen which you can assign some predefined ... Read More
