I LOVE this camera! This is my third digital camera, and easily my favorite. It's so small and compact that I can fit it in my back pocket. I get compliments on the sleek design and the color (I have the pink one) all the time.
My mom had this camera when she came to visit me last year, and I fell in love with it. For a reletively inexpensive point-and-shoot, it takes very clear pictures. I love the HUGE display on the back.
What really sold me on it is how well it does in low-light situations. I rarely use the flash, and the pictures still turn out very nice using natural light, even if it's not a very bright setting. I've printed tons of pictures up on flickr.com, and they've turned out as nice as film pics.
If I had to do it over again, I'd buy the same camera. You're not going to get all the bells and whistles that a more expensive camera would come with, but you're getting a lot of bang for your buck.
Great Pictures, not as quick as canon May 20, 2008

This camera takes great photos: I took a picture of my cat and you can see every hair and whisker detail. The black is nice too, its a very sharp looking camera, and the screen size is another good feature.
The things I am not so happy about:
- time it takes to snap a photo - although not quite as long as an older digital would take, the newer Canon camera snaps photos much quicker (the only reason we didn't by the Canon is because another family member has it and we didn't want to always get it confused)
- The picture quality - the pictures aren't the best quality I've seen, they tend to look a little washed out with the flash.
- The battery life really is not good with this camera, but this could have to do with the placement of the on/off button and it accidentally turning on when putting it away.
All and all, I am probably just being picky, as the camera was only $170 and I would say it is definitely worth that, especially if you're looking for a small portable one.

I researched long and hard for a new camera after the disappointment with my Samsung NV3. It had the worst "orbs" imaginable and never took a decent shot at night. I am very pleased with my new Nikon. It is light weight, compact and easy to use. I love the large LCD screen. This is my first Nikon camera, and I have owned a Canon and a Samsung, and personally this model is my favorite so far. Obviously it is not going to take the most fantastic photo's as let's say a $500 camera would, but for the money and style, this camera cannot be beat.
Nice Point and Shoot May 14, 2008

I bought this camera for my wife as a graduation present. I normally shoot with a Nikon D70 and I really prefer to look through a lens to frame my shot then with my arms extended looking at a LCD display. However this has a BIG 3 inch display and optical image stabilization, which is much better then electronic. I takes really good photos, and the different scene modes are really good for different photo opportunities.
