Nikon Coolpix L22 Camera Review by Donal Keegan
This 12 mega-pixel beauty from Nikon will encourage you to compose memories to cherish forever, and share with your friends and family. The Coolpix L22 includes numerous modes and auto settings, a 3.6x Zoom NIKKOR lens and also a large, clear 3" LCD screen. It is also constructed so that it fits comfortably in your hand, and so that the control keys are quick and easy to reach.
Nikon has formulated a 3-way VR IS (Image Stabilization) system, which decreases the effects of camera shake which results in blurry photos. It automatically detects that your subject has moved, and makes up for this employing a faster shutter speed and a higher ISO. An additional clever feature of the L22 is the Best Shot Selector Mode that can take a series of pictures after which it selects the shot with the sharpest focus. Combine this with the top quality precision lens, and Nikon's EXPEED image processing system, and you'll be impressed by the quality of your photographs, and with just how straightforward this camera is to use.
If portraits are what you like taking, the CoolPix L22 comes with a Smart Portrait System, that will help to remove many of the common issues. It will correct any red eye, it will provide you with an alert in the event that your subject blinks, and will also automatically go ahead and take the picture when it detects that your subject is smiling.
The menus and keys are user-friendly, and even if you know practically nothing about the technical areas of photography, your L22, making use of its Easy Auto Mode, will automatically select all the most suitable settings for the particular photo that you're attempting to capture. You can also shoot movies in 640 x 480 resolution with 30fps sound.
For convenience, and accessibility, your Coolpix L22 is operated by AA batteries, which can be purchased almost anywhere in the world, without needing to be concerned with carrying a battery charger, and perhaps various plug converters.
Pros
Some people who were really camera amateurs really thought that this was a good choice of digital camera for them since it is very easy to work with, small enough to fit in a pocket, and more importantly takes fantastic top quality photos with little knowledge of effort.
Many individuals felt that the fact that the L22 used AA batteries was obviously a big plus since they are simple to find anywhere.
Additionally they stated that the LCD screen was clear and bright, making reviewing and presenting the photographs a pleasure.
Cons
Even though the availability of AA batteries is a plus, quite a few people said that this was the one thing that let the camera down - it consumes a lot of battery power, and therefore the batteries need changing frequently.
One person was unhappy with the face detection feature and said that the images ended up in far better focus when you switched this feature off.
Another negative element was the lengthy delay that the camera needed in between shots.
A tidy and fabulous looking digital camera at a very reasonable price with plenty of Nikon's clever modes and features, the Coolpix L22 will produce quality images each and every time, with minimal effort from you.
