Nikon Coolpix L340 20.2 MP Digital Camera with 28x Optical Zoom and 3.0-Inch LCD (Black)

Purchased the L340 after my Nikon Coolpix L120 stopped working because of a small "fall". It never gave me any issues and I always liked the way it worked and handled. So when I was looking for a new one I went right back to Nikon. After looking at several models I set a price range and ended up going with the L340. So far it does everything I liked in my L120 and it does it better. The picture quality is great and the zoom, while not the best on the market at this time, it is pretty damn good. The one thing I did not like about my L120 is that it ate batteries. With the L340, after several outings and a couple hundred pictures I am still on the first set of batteries. Which still show as relatively full. I am very happy with this camera so far. Of course if you spend more you can get better but I think this model is a good camera for the money.

OK, Im a cranky old man and it took me days to decide on this camera. I searched and read gobs of stuff and pushed the button on this one. Now, this camera comes with an instruction manual or there is one online for free. USB cord and batteries. The manual has all this complicated mumbo-jumbo but I relied on FULL AUTO for my shooting. I set it on auto and went to work taking pics of stuff I needed to document. YOU NEED TO READ THE MANUAL regarding zoom usage and how to let it focus before completely depressing the fire button. I dont see any reason for me to mess with the other controls but I can if I wanna play around. I dont so that takes care of that. The pictures are clear, natural and I couldnt ask for an easier camera to use that takes decent pics. I use the 32 Gig card and the camera comes with a USB cable but it is way too short. Get a 5ft cable from Amazon. It takes 4-AA batteries and Im not going to get caught-up in proprietary scams. Also, it comes with 4 Chinese Duracells that are working now but I have extras handy with no Chinese lingo. The thing looks like its made good and will suit me just fine for what simple pics I need. The zoom is super and is clear if you let it focus. When the light turns green fire. Im only gonna tell you 2 more times. Take about 30 minutes and read the manual and familiarize yourself with the camera controls and how to take great shots. If you have to monkey-around with the controls for each shot you arent taking advantage of the auto stuff. Its made in China and probably wont last long but the price seems fair compared to all the others I examined. I have not made videos so I cant speak to that. Read the manual and youll be on your way to simple picture taking. I plug the camera into my computer and the pics are sucked-off onto Windows 10 software and usually defaults to Paint. I can modify the pics if I like. I did not download the Nikon software since there are complaints about removing the stuff if you want to. Hard to uninstall. Its as cheap as I could go and get a cool looking camera that will do the job for me with a minimal learning curve. Sure, youll need to play around a little but not much. I got right onto the zoom and basic auto settings. READ THE MANUAL!

Read most of 1 and 2 star reviews, and decided to buy this cam anyway. Most of the problems others had can be fixed by simply reading the owners manual, which you can download from Nikon. When zooming, the focus goes out, just simply push the manual button down halfway, and it will focus. Left one star out, only because when shooting video, focus is a little slow responding.. Other than that, fine first good camera for beginners. Good battery life Clear pictures Easy to navigate features Well made for 150$ Just point and shoot
