Consumer Evaluations

For anyone searching at getting a decent, mid-level point-and-shoot with the appear and feel of an SLR, the Nikon Coolpix L120 is by far the most beneficial alternative, even with its few shortcomings!

As a semi-skilled photographer who primarily shoots film (but is slowly converting to digital) I normally have kept at least a digital PS camera with me to get those "rapid" shots that I can't get mainly because of the time involved in setting up the shot in an SLR. My previous camera, the Minolta DiMAGE S414 had been obtaining extended in the tooth and was beginning to glitch. A buddy gave me his Nikon Coolpix E5200 and I was promptly hooked on Nikon's legendary imaging good quality. Even so, the five-megapixel sensor in the Coolpix E5200 was brief of what I absolutely needed, so the identical friend who gave me the E5200 also let me attempt out his Coolpix L110. I was blown away with how nicely the pictures turned out! In my quest to buy my own Coolpix L110, I had heard back in February that Nikon was releasing the Coolpix L120, with a 2-megapixel increase over the L110 and numerous new features. Having read the first evaluations of the camera, it seemed like a certain winner, so I took the plunge on March 14th of this year and secured a single for myself.

Instantaneously, I was hooked on it. Proper out of the box, this camera is a winner! The settings, user-interface, the sleek design and the nifty zoom selector on the lens barrel makes this camera worth each penny. In the short time I have owned it, I have currently taken around 1,200 images with it anything from nature, bridges, even the sun! (with a solar filter, of course). And with its incredible 21x optical zoom, I can photograph a automobile at alot more than a quarter-mile away and be in a position to clearly read its license plate!

The only drawback I can see is that Nikon has left out the capacity to manually manage your aperture and shutter speed settings (rather, leaving that for the Nikon Coolpix P500 which I was unimpressed with). Nonetheless, those smaller shortcomings are overwhelmed by the simplicity this camera provides. Itching to get into Panorama photography, without having the need for an high priced SLR with built-in panorama stitching? Consider it done! With this camera's Panorama-Assist function (which overlays a small portion of the image onto the screen for the subsequent shot to be composed), and the supplied Arcsoft Panorama Maker Pro five software program, Panorama-style photography has never been much more economical. Looking to enhance photographs with HDR-like color clarity? Give consideration to that done, also! This camera supplies with it built-in D-Lighting that preserves the color intensity of an image however bringing out the specifics otherwise hidden inside dark shadows. Also supplied, incase you do not want to edit your images in-camera, is Nikon's personal View NX-2, which not only includes D-lighting enhancement filters, it also gives a host of other image-editing capabilities!

In brief, this camera has the competition beat! I would suggest it (I have the black version) more than something else.

Purchased this camera and loved the ease of operation and picture excellent. I also have the Panasonic DMC-FZ35, which is Particularly complicated. I needed something simpler. I learned to use this Nikon just after only 1 hour of reading the manual (compared to months still trying to figure out the Panasonic). Was quick acquiring excellent pictures. Smile detection and Pet mode worked terrific. Sadly, my primary reason for this type of hybrid camera, is for the convenience of camera and HD video in a single unit. Video good quality on this unit is nicely beneath typical. I compared it to my Panasonic - no comparison. The Panasonic's video was smooth and clear, the Nikon - grainy and jerky. I genuinely wanted to preserve this camera for it's ease of use and picture high quality, but the poor video top quality ultimately brought on me to return it. Till I discover an straightforward to use camera with superior picture and video, I'll continue with the months of trying to figure out the Panasonic.

PROS: Ease of use, superb images, smile detection, pet mode, easy to recognize manual, price tag.

CONS: Poor video superior
