"I love overstock and will continue to shop here, however, the Nikon Coolpix Digital Camera was a disappointing purchase. I bought the camera and it arrived quickly and looked great! It is very thin, sleek and modern looking. Unfortunately the picture quality was horrible. The pictures are always blurry and the coloring is distorted to greens and blacks. Its very weird. I have owned many digital cameras and never seen this! I am hoping that perhaps the camera just needs a little MORE refurbishing. I am currently trying to exchange it. Like I said, I love overstock and will continue to shop here but this purchase was a little disappointing."

"I got this for an anniversary gift for my girlfriend who was extremely excited. The size and pixels were just what she had wanted. Unfortunately we took it out of the box and turned it on, the lense opened and would not shut. Thus causing a error with the camera and it wouldn't take any pictures due to the error. We ended up having to send it in to Nikon to get fixed. So her anniversary gift she won't even get to use for 4 weeks. Bad first time experience with this website."

"i LOVE how thin and sleek the camera is! Its my first camera and i found out how to use it that same day. The only thing i didnt like was that the battery went low pretty fast. I would use the camera one day and if i didnt charge it that same night then it would go dead. I found that out the hard way. But besides the battery I really like this camera"

"This little camera is easy to operate, easy to carry, creates the highest quality images of any camera I have owned and I have owned over 4 digital cameras and a number of SLR's. The only drawback is holding it steady because it is so small. If you want the highest quality pictures for any project, buy this camera."

"It would have been much easier to get started if I didn't receive both manuals in Spanish. I don't read or speak Spanish. Right now I am depending on friends who have used digital cameras to help me along.
I really like the clarity of the viewing area and the ease by which you can see what you have just taken. Allows for retakes before your subject leaves the area."

"I've used my camera several times now and love it. It's small and I can carry it everywhere in my purse. It's very easy to use and has several features that I'll probably never get around to using. It's nice to know they are there if I need them. This is the perfect camera and I haven't seen any other camera that I would rather own."
