Review on 📷 Nikon Coolpix L340 20.2 Megapixel Digital Camera with 28x Optical Zoom and 3.0-Inch LCD Screen (Black) by Akio Yamato ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

The product can be used, I expected a little more.

When buying such "zooms", you need to understand that if you place 20 megapixels on a tiny 1 / 2.3 "matrix, noise is ensured at any ISO and in any lighting. You can remove them only with aggressive noise reduction, which will lead to the effect of "watercolor" in the photo, and along the way will kill all the small details (for reference - visually compare the sizes of the matrices: https://upload. Wikimedia. Org/wikipedia/ru/thumb/1/18/DC_SensorsSizes. Svg/2022px-DC_SensorsSizes. Svg. Png ) In this example our matrix is ​​slightly larger than the smallest one (blue), but smaller than all the others shown in the figure. . The second point of contention is batteries. On the one hand, it is possible to run into the nearest store and buy a set of AA batteries if the batteries are dead and there is nowhere to charge them. This is a plus. AA batteries are also sold on every corner, and are much cheaper than branded lithium batteries - this is also a plus. Those. it doesn’t hurt to buy several sets of batteries for those who take a lot and often take pictures. On the other hand, the "native" battery, as a rule, shows the charge more accurately, it is charged in the complete charger (you do not need to spend money on a charger, and a good charger like La Crosse 700 series costs ~ 3000). Accordingly, for whom is this device intended (like all its close relatives?). 1) Tourists for whom it is important to remove the crosses on the temple, the tiles on the roof, the animal (or friend) on the other side of the river, 300 meters wide. Those. people who care about zoom. 2) At the same time, these travelers will be cut off from a hotel room or their apartment for several days (or even weeks). Those. they have nowhere to recharge their branded battery, but walking past the next museum, it’s not at all a problem to buy a set of batteries for one and a half hundred. 3) In this case, the photo will be printed (if it is printed) in 10 * 15 format, maximum - A5, or posted on social networks in which the size of the picture is reduced several times, due to which the grain does not hurt the eyes. And only so.
