Nikon Coolpix P90 12.1MP Digital Camera with 24x Wide Angle Optical Vibration Reduction (VR) Zoom and 3 inch Tilt LCD: Customer Reviews & Product Details

This camera does everything you want and more. Lots of presets. I you use this for a $$ shoot then workwith it first. You don't have time to fiddle during an event. Experiment over and over. You really can't make a bad exposure. If you do... the software provided will teach you to fix.....

Of the "point and shoot" cameras on the market today, this is undoubtly the best. Love the 600mm telephoto lens. The pictures are extremely sharp even when cropped and enlarged. Most of the time, it is best to put automatic and let the camera to it thing. However, it also work wonderfully on both aperature and speed priority for those times when special treatment is desired.

The only two drawbacks is that one cannot readily attach filters to the lens (for instance a UV filter to protect the lens) and the picture on the viewfinder and screen is not nearly as clear and sharp as what the picture actually.

If one wants something a bit better than the simple point and shoot cameras and particularly with a great telephoto lens, this is the one to buy. I highly recommend this camera.

Note: watch out how much telephoto you use. A tripod is needed when going much past 200mm.

I would have bought this camera, but for its rechargeable battery limitation. Went for the Olympus instead. AA batteries are easy to find, replace and don't require you to remember to charge multiple EN-EL5 Ni Cads every night.

As many other people complained, badly blurred macro shots. YELLOW AS HECK interior photos. I decided the heck with this and sent it back for a Panasonic DMC-FZ35, best cam I have had.

If your gonna go Nikon go for a D series, but stay away from the P series

Love this Nicon P90 camera. It's loaded with features only found in more expensive cameras
and no need to change lenses because of the 26mm to 624mm equivalent zoom of a 35mm film camera.
The tilt screen works great.
