"This is the most disappointing purchase I have made.
I purchased this Nikon to take on a European vacation, and on the 2nd day it stopped working.
It would allow me to review the pictures previously taken, but would not allow me into picture taking mode.
The only way to turn it off was to disconnect the battery.
So here I was on a ten day, four country trip, with no camera, forcing me to buy a camera in Euros!
Not only did I miss the chance to bring home memories from a portion of the trip, I had to spend excessive dollars to get a working camera.
How do I return this faulty product?

"This remanufactured camera arrived not in working condition.
I had read the "more information" regarding remanufactured items, about the low return rate and how careful the quality control is. This was not the case at all. I had to set the camera up and read the manual to learn that the digital error message that i was getting meant the the camera had to be fixed by the manufacturer. Then i had to return it at my own expense. This was a total waste of time. Plus, this camera will probably be re-sold "as-is" since there isn't a way to communicate to overstock.com that the item is broken, the paperwork packed with the merchandise is very vague without return instructions, etc.
I have bought other products from overstock.com which worked out great. This time, not so great.

"Very nice camera with clear images and easy to use features. However, I was surprised when it arrived that it was a refurbished product. No problem - as long as it works. We used it for about 2 weeks before we started having major problems with it. It is currently being repaired - under warranty."

"The image quality on this camera is great so far. However, I have had some issues figuring out where all the options are hidden. My friend has a nice digital camera by HP and it has several nice settings that this one doesn't, and it's a lot more user friendly. But, the image quality isn't as great, either. I have also had trouble with fuzzy pictures--this only has vibration reduction, not image stablization, as far as I can tell. The vibration reduction is nice, but when I and some friends have tried to take self-portraits, holding the camera out with just one hand has led to several really shaky/fuzzy pics. My friend's HP with image stabilization doesn't do that. However, this camera has an incredible zoom and is really good for scenery, portrait and close-up shots. Hard to beat in those aspects."

"I have used this camera in a number of different situations and have thoroughly enjoyed the results. The 5X zoom is very useful to my wife who has poor vision, as it allows her to see objects that would ordinarily be too small to see otherwise. The menu allows for great variety if I want and automatic also. I opted for a camera that used AA batteries since they are available anywhere... battery packs are not! I am able to take shots with or without flash as I choose too. Reviews said it had slow start up? 3 seconds is slow??? It has always been ready when I am. Bottom line, I bought it because it suited all of my needs. great,clear resolution even on a full computer screen. I'd buy it again!"

"I purchased this camera for myself for x-mas. I wasn't that impressed w/how the photos looked on the LCD screen (all I saw was grease face) and on the 3rd time I used it (right b4 New Year's) - I was at a zoo - it stopped working, the lens wouldn't open and it kept shutting itself off! I wasn't happy so I decided to return it and I have to say the OverStock tech online support was very helpful/painless and I ret'd my camera and they are issuing me a full refund & now I have a new camera that I LOVE :)"

"With the exception of Leica and Contax, Nikon is the most prestigious mainstream brand. And this model was a bargain for it's 7 megapixel clarity. It was supposedly factory-refurbished.But there was not even a miniscule cosmetic blemish or indication of previous wear or use. I would highly recommend this point and shoot camera!"

"this camera is awsome. battery life is excellent and i take alot of video scenes. i used my camera jan 19
to take birthday pics and video of my grandaughters
7th b-day. pics were very vivid. i just wish it had an
in camera red eye fix after you take the picture. but i can
correct this with my computer. if you can remember to
set the smiley face button before you start taking pics
the camer will eliminate the red eye. but for the price
all in all this camera is wonderful.

"great phone for the price, just make sure you put in fresh batteries or the phone wont work for more than about 10 minutes. Also, memory on camera only holds 6 pictures so make sure you pick up a memory card prior to use. overall though, good phone.."
