Review on πŸ“· Review: Nikon Coolpix S2800 20.1 MP Point & Shoot Digital Camera - 5X Optical Zoom, International Version (Silver) by Jennifer Garcia

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Completely disappointed in point and shoot digital cameras

Cute and small, my problem is the shooting speed. It actually takes a long time to take a photo and it can take up to 5 seconds to save while the camera is a paperweight. Tried 3 different memory cards (including Ultras) and no difference. The damn thing is too slow for me. Also, the white balance is really off. When I look at the rear screen I see the colors in real life, but nothing in the photo can capture the actual colors at ANY white balance setting. What strikes me is that the screen can display a live image but cannot capture the image with the correct lighting and color. I suppose I could fiddle with the settings until I found a setting that works, but all I wanted was a point and shoot shot, taking more than 1 shot every 5 seconds and at least partially could capture real light and color.

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • Unbeatable price
