Nikon Coolpix L340 Digital Camera, Black

The Nikon L340 is a model that makes capturing beautiful images easy with simple operations. It packs a 28x optical zoom (up to 56x when Dynamic Fine Zoom is used) NIKKOR lens that covers the wide-angle 22.5 mm to super-telephoto 630 mm angles of view (equivalent focal lengths in 35mm [135] format) in one of the smallest bodies in its class. It also offers a large grip that fits easily and comfortably in the hand, simple and intuitive operation, a vibration reduction (VR) function that offers excellent compensation for camera shake, and a large, high-definition LCD monitor.

User Experience :

This camera fully met my expectations for an affordable, long zoom camera. Prior to purchasing this camera I had been using the camera on my cell phone. While my cell phone takes decent pictures, it does not have any optical zoom. I can digitally zoom a little bit with it but those pictures look blurry. I got this camera primarily for it's 28x optical zoom. This really gives you the ability to take pictures that just aren't possible with the cell phone. I can get more people in an indoor shoot because the lens is a wider angle than on my cell phone camera and with the 28x optical zoom it opens up a whole new world, especially for outdoor shoots. l also like that it uses regular AA batteries which are available just about everywhere. At a price of less than $200 it is an excellent value.

I ordered this at Target online on Black Friday with free shipping and I am happy to say that I love it. I've only had it a couple of days, but I've been taking numerous types of pictures to try it out and I love it. I have searched and searched and searched for a camera that takes good pictures up close AND far away, for a decent price. I've went through many that were under $100 and they were crap. I paid right at $100 for this camera (before tax and warranty) and I think that is a steal for the quality of pictures that it takes. It's no professional camera, but when you go from an iPhone camera to this, it feels like you are a professional! I am 100% satisfied with the camera, the quality of pictures it takes, and how quickly the camera actually takes the pictures (there is no lag). Those were my main three concerns when purchasing this camera and I am very happy with my purchase.
