Summary: Compact, fun-design camera
Comment: This camera has worked fine for me. I bought it used, and have used it for 2 months now. I takes good pictures, is a solid camera, and easy to operate. The lens swivels open-and-close (actually you have to do it manually) to protect the camera. The zoom is good, and the keys are easy to understand and use. The menus are easy to navigate as well.

Summary: Great design, great pictures
Comment: I've had this camera for about 5 years now and it's still going. It's reliable, takes good pictures {for the 2.0 megapixels it has}, and it's easy to carry around.
I take pictured constantly and this camera has held up really, really well. I would even recommend it for someone who wants to buy it now, 5 years after its release date - but for casual shooting only.
The downside is the blurriness of specific "scene" modes - night scenes as well as the "indoor" scene mode. If you keep it on portrait mode though or just manual, it's more than fine though.

Summary: I'll miss it . . .
Comment: My Nikon 2500 Coolpix camera died on me today after 3 faithful years of service. The murderer has been apprehended. She is said to be a mischeivious 18 month old girl with an appetite for shiny objects with buttons. This is not her first murder conviction and it probably won't be her last . . .
This camera was my first digital camera and I used the heck out of it! At last count I have taken over 200,000 pictures. I used it for an online buisness and for personal family use. I bought it refurbished so I expected it to have problems from the get-go, but it was great up until it's early demise.
The amazing unique feature on this camera was the tilting lense feature. I can't tell you how many times I used it. The camera was also very easy to use and understand, especially for the beginner - like I was. The battery life was Okay, it usually died on me after about 100 shots.
The flaws on this camera are common flaws seen in any digicam this size. The lense is really small so low light or indoor pictures are awful. I missed a lot of adorable shots of my children indoors because of this issue. Red Eye is awful as well. The outdoor full sun pictures were really nice though, some of them positively stunning.
Since I use my camera indoors mainly I decided to go with a camera twice as expensive this time around. One with a big lense!
