Reliable point and shoot camera, but not excellent

Rating: 6 out of 10 (Good)
Pros: User-friendly
Cons: Image quality on low light and high ISO sucks big time
Opinion:
It's almost retarded that user reviewers will indicate not a single comment on why this camera is good or bad, yet shouts "trust me you won't regret" or something like that. Well, this is indeed a decent P&S camera. It has all the bells and whistles in this category. Trying it out at the Nikon booth in a recent camera roadshow, it does produce decent photos at macro and at long-range PROVIDED there is adequate light. Push the ISO range to 400 and noise starts becoming visible, which is not good for a camera at this niche.

And considering cameras get used a lot indoors for parties and related events where lighting conditions are on the dim side, I won't recommend this camera. I agree with CNET's review, image quality is not good at all when you exit the "safe" ISO 100-200 range.
