Just bought. The blue tooth is cool. But focusing far away Is a issue. The instructions that came with the camera didnt 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!
Pros, great looking photos, easy to use, full HD video, great zoom. Cons, has a lot of trouble focusing when zoomed, at times can almost make the zoom useless. Lack of any manual control over shutter speed, focus, or really anything. I like to be able to take timed exposures for waterfalls and such, completely impossible with this camera. I cant seem to find a camera in this price point that does have that feature however, so I cant necessarily deduct a star for it. But, I feel slightly generous only docking one for the zoom issue. While taking a video, I zoomed in on a waterfall, the entire shot stayed blurry for a good 30 seconds before it finally came into focus. I dont really see a good excuse for that, wildlife photos may prove nearly impossible. I managed to shoot a squirrel and a woodpecker, but only from a great distance so they wouldnt scare too quickly to get a shot.
So far so good. Im a novice photographer and just wanted to take pictures of pets and art. I think I would need to do more studying of the manual to really get full functionality out of the camera. See my images. Sometimes the autofocus gets wiggy and I wish there were more manual options. Im still trying to figure out how to take pictures of quick moving objects like dogs running with it being so blurry. I have much better images with still subjects. There is a sports function but I need more practice. Knocking a star bc the software, especially the computer software could use some TLC. The mobile software is just ok too. It works, Ive had no problems transporting photos from my camera to iPad. All in all Im glad I purchased this camera. These pictures are far better than what Im getting with my phone.
I am a total novice when it comes to photography but I wanted an inexpensive camera to take photos for food blogging or at events. After doing a lot of research, I settled on this because it fit within my $300 budget. The camera is pretty basic and includes a charging cord and batteries. There is only enough base memory for about 4 photos so youll definitely need a memory card. This takes good photos in natural light and doesnt do a great job in low light settings without the flash. However, I can easily brighten photos using editing software (I sometimes use Lightroom but free programs will also do this too) so this is not a concern. Photo details are clear but sometimes darker colors (blacks or blues) may look muted without color correction. I like the pivoting viewfinder but I wish that the camera had a screen that turned completely around. I love that it has 1080p video that is really clear. Uploading photos using the USB cord is also very easy too. I have a MacBook and all of the photos import fine without any software. I have not tried out the Wi-Fi feature yet but I like that its also an option. This model is a over a year old but unless youre bothered by not having the latest technology, its still a great buy for anyone on a strict budget. The included photo is an unedited, zoomed photo of a bush in my yard. Very clear detail!
Great starter camera if you want to jump into photography, it doesnt have a manual mode unfortunately, but it has plenty of modes that can get the job done in pretty much any situation, youre limiting this camera severely if you dont take advantage of the modes so make sure you read or skim the manual its easy to understand and can help you get started if youve never used a digital camera of this caliber. The photos Ive put in this review are all unedited photos Ive taken with this camera since using it!
Decent little camera. Does NOT HAVE MANUAL MODE. I am a beginning photography student and purchased this not knowing much but thinking this did have manual mode. This does NOT. Its a good quality camera for the price and has excellent settings. You will get good images out of it, but do not expect manual mode.
Im really liking my new Nikon. I *love* the Bluetooth connectivity. That is life-changing. The Nikon app has worked well, paired with my iPhone 7. About my only complaint is that when you turn it on - even just to view the pics youve already taken - you MUST take off the lens cover first or the camera wont work and you get a message on the screen, "Please turn off, remove the lens cover, and turn on again" or something like that. Crimeny. Im pretty sure my husbands Canon Rebel doesnt have this issue. After a couple of weeks, Ive been trained to ALWAYS take the lens cover off before turning it on, but that seems like a glitch they need to correct. As for ease of use and quality of images, Im very pleased. The "rapid burst" setting is NOTHING like the rapid burst on my iPhone, so I still use that for capturing sports action. If thats important to you and youre going to be taking lots of sports/action photography, you wont be able to get off this inexpensively, Im afraid. Still, this camera meets my needs 90% of the time.
