Nikon Coolpix L5 7.2MP Digital Camera with 5x Optical Vibration Reduction Zoom Reviews
Customer Rating:
Summary: Adequate but too fragile
Comment: it takes good pictures and much better video than you might expect. I have some YouTube concert footage that is surprisingly clear and the audio is very good.
The optical zoom is good and you can get good enlargements from that but once you get into the digital zoom things start looking bad.
My biggest complaint: The battery cover is as fragile as crystal -- Don't ever drop the camera -- the cover will inevitably crack or chip and that's it -- you'll be using tape to hold it together. I paid $50 to have it repaired once, but this time it's not worth the additional expense -- too bad.

Summary: Nice Camera - Very Fragile
Comment: After less than 500 frames, received "Lens Error," unable to correct without repair. Based on anticipated cost of repair versus current value, will likely throw camera away.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Bad Picture quality, flash problems.
Comment: I bought this camera for my Mom when we went on the trip together. I'm glad I brought my own camera with me as otherwise we wouldn've have any good pictures. The picture quality was really bad, most of the pictures weren't clear. The outdoor pictures were ok, but indoor pictures were aweful in 80% of the cases. The camera is also quite slow to start and takes forever to charge the flash. We also could not set the flash to fire in the auto mode, it just would not fire. The instruction to the camera are very limited and unclear. I've used 6-7 different digital cameras before and this one is the worst I've ever used.

Summary: A wonderful camera
Comment: I recently purchased a Nikon Coolpix L5 7.2MP Digital Camera with 5x Optical Vibration Reduction Zoom. What can I say? This camera is absolutely awesome! It is light on the batteries, and easy to operate. Do yourself a favor, and skim the owner's manual, in order to take advantage of all the features this camera has to offer. I especially like the broad range of aperture and the ability to rapidly shoot photos, in the sports mode. The Vibration Reduction Zoom does a superb job when engaged. Photos are always crisp, even when lighting conditions aren't well. I would recommend this camera to anyone, from the beginner to the novice professional. I love it!
Customer Rating:
Summary: great photos
Comment: this is a great camera if you love to take pictures everywhere. the 5x optical zoom make's a big defference.
