5 out of 5 stars Amazing camera   August 11, 2008
I have owned this camera for a little over two years and have taken almost 3,000 pictures with it. Everything has been excellent and this camera is built like a rock. It has taken a few drops right on the lens and been fine.

This past weekend I accidentally left it on the bumper of my truck and it fell off while driving about 20mph and the car behind me ran straight over it with their tire. It didn't make it this time, but amazingly it is still all in one piece and looking at it you half expect it to turn on because there is so little damage, the memory card and battery still slide in and out just fine.

I'm about to order another one because these are so reliable and tough.



3 out of 5 stars Nikon CoolPix   May 13, 2008
Not being a digital camera kind of person, this is easy to use, and takes very good photos. However, I don't like not having a viewfinder. Using only the screen drains batteries quickly. Constantly turning it off to preserve battery life results in not having it ready when needed.

Using this camera in the sun is difficult if you are wearing polarized sunglasses.

The selector button moves too easily from setting to setting, resulting in the camera possibly not ready to use once turned back on if it has been put into a pocket.

JUST WHAT I EXPECTED. HADN'T HAD LUCK WITH PREVIUOS CAMERAS BOUGHT, BUT THIS IS JUST WHAT I WANTED. EASY TO USE AND EXCELLENT PICTURES!


5 out of 5 stars Handy, All-Around Great Little Camera   October 15, 2007

I've owned my P3 for over a year, and it's going strong. I have several cameras in my bag, including a pricey DSLR, but this is the one I really count on when I'm in a hurry and don't need to mess with a lot of settings.

The Wi-fi capability is a little gimmicky. Download time is very slow--and only a little faster with the supplied USB connect. A 2.0 card reader solves that little snag.

I've used this camera in a broad spectrum of conditions and rarely find that it can't keep up. It has given me pleasing and consistently great images for online auctions, candid snapshots of the grandkids, pet photos, landscapes and macro work.

The build is sturdy and good-looking. The camera is small enough to slip in a shirt pocket or purse.

While full manual control is not a feature of this camera, there's still plenty of tweaking room allowed in the various modes. I find the ISO and WB places on the dial especially handy and am very glad they aren't buried down in a menu somewhere.

The LCD is nice and bright, and image review is a snap.

Full Auto works great. But that's not all. If you want in-camera noise reduction, you've got it. In-camera sharpening, you've got it. The menu is extensive for tailoring the various scene presets. There is an aperture mode for greater control. Metering modes are also selectable--matrix, spot focus, and center weighted average get used a lot.

It's last year's model, but it has everything you need this year. Vibration reduction, consistently snappy images with great dynamic range, 8MP resolution for large prints and a take-anywhere size.

All for a very affordable price!

Where I am happy with the camera itself....The actual cost, once I received the final total, I am not happy with. The purchase cost was $257., after shipping, exchange rate, AND customs fees(which were not disclosed at the time of purchase, and delayed the shipping) the actual total was $359.48. I could have purchased the camera locally for $325. What was the point of buying from Amazon??????
