 Poor Nikon support makes this one useless August 27, 2008
Bought this because of the wireless connection.
Works fine with Power PC Macs, but Nikon has and will not provide software that will work with Intel Macs.
Therefore this was the last Nikon product I ever bought.
 Its ok. August 23, 2008
It has been 3 years since we bought this camera. In that time, we have used it a lot for movies and photos.
The pictures were ok but not bad for the price (3 years ago). The movie quality can be increased, so we did that and have been pretty happy. Although if not is bright light, the result is grainy.
The Wi-fi is a joke. We set it up on my husband's mac and never got it to work on the PC. I have an SD slot, so we mostly used that.
The one thing that puzzles us is that almost all of the tiny screws have disappeared. Strange.
 camera April 6, 2008
This is my second P2 camera. (I drown my first on at the Great Barrier Reef. Dive case leak)
I like the battery as it lasts 100s of photos on a charge. The photos come out great. I can plug it into most any TV and show my photos.
I throw it around and leave it in a hot car and it keeps working great. If I lose this one, I'll get another one just like it if the are available.
Coolpix Camera December 27, 2007
I purchased this camera to replace one (same model) I had lost. It came with everything my original camera I purchased in the store came with, at a much lower price. I couldn't be happier with this purchase.
 Awesome camera for the price November 27, 2007
This was the ultimate bang for the buck.... works great, takes good pictures. Best camera you'll find for under $100. The only letdowns: (1)The Wi-Fi turned out to be a proprietary setup that could not be easily configured (if at all) to work with a normal Linksys or D-link home network for file sharing with PC's. I gave up and used the usb cable instead. (2)Also uses a proprietary battery that runs out long before your memory card does, and of course it only comes with one battery. (3)Also uses proprietary cable connectors, so if you lose your cable, you have to $pecial order another one from Nikon (vs. other cameras that use standard mini usb and A/V cables that are interchangeable with other devices)
