This review is from: Nikon COOLPIX L26 Red 16.1 MP 5X Optical Zoom 26mm Wide Angle Digital Camera
Pros:
Looks sleek. Nice and compact.
Cons:
Shutter lags because ISO stays so low. No way to manually adjust this. Results in blurry pics :(
Overall Review:
I'm no pro but not a newbie either. Have shot on manual with a DSLR for years now and although that's what I prefer to shoot with, I needed something to fit in a pocket for school field trips vacation snapshots etc. I knew I couldn't go manual as I could with either of my other cameras (even another Fuji point and shoot I had), but I expected the auto settings on this one to be at least sufficient. I've had trouble getting a sharp picture in most any circumstance even in good lighting. When looking at the properties, I notice that the camera is almost always using a low ISO setting and much to slow of a shutter speed for a subject that moves at all. The pics I've taken with this camera are almost all disappointing. I don't know if the sensor on this camera is bad or what. Glad I didn't pay much for it, because I'm beyond the point of getting a return.
