Automatic exposure control lets the camera take charge of all the picky details, although a handful of exposure options provides some measure of creative control. With its diminutive dimensions, the Coolpix is great for travel, and the range of preset shooting and framing modes anticipates most common shooting conditions. The 2, x 2,pixel maximum resolution is high enough for making sharp 11xinch photographic prints or sharp 8x10 prints with fairly heavy cropping , while the x pixel resolution setting is perfect for sending email attachments over the Internet.
The uncomplicated user interface means you won't spend much time learning the camera. Perfect for novice users or anyone looking for a point-and-shoot camera with a slick look, great ease of use, and sharp, colorful photos, the Coolpix could also serve as a great take-anywhere snapshot camera for more advanced shooters. Slim, trim, and super-tiny, the Nikon Coolpix is among the smaller Coolpix models available it's not much taller than a credit card.
Though the camera body has a few protrusions, they're slight enough to avoid catching on pockets, especially when combined with the smooth contours that define the camera. Though the camera actually fit my hand surprisingly well given its tiny dimensions, I highly recommend making use of the included wrist strap. The Nikon 's matte-silver body glimmers with shiny silver highlights for a fun look. High quality Nikkor optics and a 5. The Coolpix measures 3. The camera's front panel contains the 3x zoom lens, built-in flash, optical viewfinder window, and the self-timer lamp that ticks off the seconds as the self-timer counts down.
A shutter-like lens cover protects the lens when not in use, and automatically slides out of the way when the camera is powered on eliminating the hassle of keeping track of a lens cap.
When powered on, the lens telescopes out into its operating position. A slight bulge beneath the Shutter button courtesy of the battery compartment comfortably aligns your fingers as they wrap around the camera, with a sharper ridge just beyond it to act as a grip, catching your fingers. On the right side of the camera is the Secure Digital SD memory card compartment and an eyelet for attaching the wrist strap.
The hinged SD card compartment door opens with a pull toward the back of the camera, and opens wide enough to grasp the card. The card releases with an initial inward press. Also visible from this side is the tiny plastic door that slides up out of the way to make room for the cord when using the optional AC adapter pack.
On the opposite side of the camera is the connector compartment, protected by a rubbery cover that remains attached to the camera. Just above the compartment are seven holes for the camera's speaker. The remaining external controls are all located on the camera's rear panel, along with the 1.
Two LEDs next to the optical viewfinder light or flash to indicate camera status, such as when focus is set, the flash is charging, or the camera is accessing the memory card. To the right of the optical viewfinder is the Mode dial, which sets the main operating mode.
A Zoom rocker button is just to the right of that, and controls optical and digital zoom, as well as some Playback viewing options.
In the center of the back panel is a five-way disk-shaped controller, which accesses Flash, Macro, and Self-Timer options, in addition to navigating menu screens.
The nav disk has a separate button in the middle for accepting selections, a solution that is easier than trying to press in the entire disk as we've seen in other cameras. This button can also be pressed to initiate picture transfer when the camera is connected to a computer that has the Nikon software loaded onto it.
Just below the nav disk are the Playback and Erase buttons, and the Menu button is just above it. The Nikon Coolpix has a flat bottom panel, with slightly rounded edges that curve up toward the rest of the camera. The battery compartment door and plastic tripod mount line up side-by-side, making quick battery changes while mounted to a tripod impossible.
This won't likely be a problem for most Nikon users, though, given the point-and-shoot orientation of the camera. A hinged, plastic door covers the battery compartment, releasing with a slide to the front. The batteries fall free when the door is opened, so keep a hand ready.
Despite the Nikon Coolpix 's limited exposure control, the camera offers a nice selection of external control buttons, making for a very easy-to-navigate user interface. Flash mode, Self-Timer mode, Macro mode, zoom, record mode, and an Erase function are all accessible via external controls. The Mode dial on the rear panel selects the main operating mode, and a multi-directional Arrow pad navigates through on-screen menus, in addition to accessing camera features directly.
Operating this camera is so straightforward I doubt you'll need the manual for much more than reference, although it's definitely worth reading about how to use the Best Shot Selector function for low-light photos, and learning to use the Preset White Balance option. These are both features that many users miss or gloss over, and they can make a big difference in the quality of your shots.
Advanced features aside though, it shouldn't take more than a few minutes to get the basics and be shooting pictures.

It also displays an icon if the image is one that's been selected for quick download with Nikon's host software, as well as an icon indicating that you can record an audio note to accompany the image.
The information overlay can be disabled via the Setup menu Monitor option, the same as in record mode. Pressing the zoom lever toward the wide-angle end zooms out to a four-image thumbnail view of photos stored on the card.

Pressing the zoom control in the telephoto direction zooms in as much as 10x on the subject, handy for checking image details and focus.

All of these settings are confirmed by pressing the central button once the selection has been made. When connected to a computer with Nikon's software loaded, pressing the center button triggers a "one touch" upload of selected images to the computer.
