Type of review

A good camera that allows you to shoot from a great distance, but there is no manual exposure setting, for example, it easily loses focus on a large zoom; if a large zoom is a priority for not too much money, you can take it; however, if you want a high quality photo, then it' of course, it quickly eats up the battery; however, one thing that is good is that it uses 4 aa batteries; this is a positive. Various advantages: good zoom Simple to pick up and nicely presented Strong presentation Not…

There are some variations, but tolerable on the whole.

Has pros: Comfortable to hold and use Batteries last a long time (and are easy to replace with others) big zoom Swivel screen Has cons: It is not always possible to focus on the subject, For shooting in a vertical position, turn the screen forward will not work.

The product did not cause delight, but you can use it.

Pros below: Nice photos in motion. Comfortably lies in the hand. Swivel screen. Its cons: Terrible sound on video, took to record concerts, the previous camera (Coolpix L820) coped quite well, but here you have to pinch your ears, a huge amount of sound distortion.

The quality was disappointing, the product is bad.

My search for a new camera to replace my Panasonic Lumix TZ7 took a long time. After reading through a plethora camera reviews, I decided on the Nikon Coolpix B500. With a powerful matrix of 16, and a respectable 40mm zoom, it was an easy decision to make. One thing I will say is that the seven-year-old Lumix takes superior photos and videos. I couldn't believe that a brand new modern model with upgraded specifications, and even for such a price, could deliver such horrible results when I read…

Pros
  • Trying to think of the benefits, but coming up empty.
Cons
  • The camera has a lack of focus and sharpness, making it unable to capture a moving subject in focus. Unfortunately, the video is terrible (like on an ancient phone)

I like everything, the quality is good, the price is acceptable.

With an excellent camera, you can take shots from a far distance, but there is no manual exposure setting, so, for instance, it is easy to lose focus when using a big zoom, and images taken in challenging lighting situations will turn out better with a flagship smartphone. In general, you can bring a huge zoom if you don't mind spending a lot of money, but if you want a high-quality photo, a DSLR is preferable. Although the camera has a traditional viewfinder and naturally depletes its battery…

Pros
  • decent zoom simple to learn Looks good a strong showing not too large Access to wireless communication is possible rotating screen
Cons
  • High zoom might result in focus loss. Poor ability in difficult circumstances usage of energy There are several missing manual settings.

Overall good, but expected more.

In general, if I had known in advance, I would have bought another model, otherwise I was also led to rave reviews with five stars from incompetent buyers. I'll save some money - and I'll take a model from another manufacturer. I don't have much luck with Nikons. I can’t say for all models, but I don’t recommend taking this one. Has some pros Cheap, powerful zoom, universal AA batteries, replaceable with similar batteries. Quite easy to operate, for a novice layman - the most "that". Some cons:

It's not all bad, an average quality purchase.

A hybrid of spyglass and clipped data transfer technologies. Pros: one). There is everything inherent in "soap dishes", and also a little more. 2). Nominally there is Wi-fi and Bluetooth. They work under certain conditions. 3). Good pictures, even with such a good zoom. Good enough at dusk without a flash (for its price). four). The screen tilts up and down. With its cons. one). Wi-fi and Bluetooth DO NOT WORK without a special proprietary smartphone (Snap bridge). It's just bestiality. 2)…

Satisfactory product quality, good price.

Better bad software than bad shots! The device has been put into operation. Has some pros As the first "big" camera - quite good. The picture quality is good. Stabilization, even at maximum zoom, works well. For beautiful shots, you need to practice and play with the shooting mode settings. With its cons. Curve firmware of the interface program: - the battery charge, on the display, always displays at 100%, but when connected to a computer (using regular Win10 tools), it displays the real%…

The best thing for the money, Im glad I chose this option.

Overall, a good device for its price range. Got pros: The presence of a crank and a trolley for transportation greatly facilitates the use of this device, I would also like to note the ability to take pictures with it, which is a nice bonus to driving nails. Some cons: Small resource when trying to bypass the capacity of the built-in battery. The manufacturer should take care of the possibility of connecting a high-capacity car battery, such as ST-120.

The best thing I've ever used, I recommend it to everyone!

It is not necessary to draw conclusions on a defective device. Fotik is great! yes, this is not a SLR camera, and not a cool mirrorless camera, the prices for which start at 40 thousand. This is a successful and convenient digital camera with a steep optical zoom. In a dark room with a flash - great photos. In the dark without a flash - very good, in sunlight there is nothing to say. The video is very high quality, the stabilizer works great. And the use of a 40x zoom is just a fairy tale for a

Expectations were not met, average quality.

If only it were possible to upload pictures without pulling the batteries. and better without wires - it would be an excellent camera. Got pros: The picture quality is excellent high sensor sensitivity and low noise even when shooting in low light powerful zoom and high-altitude stabilization Cons below: Wi-Fi and Bluetooth have not yet been used Bluetooth according to the instructions can only be used with the native SnapBridge application, which is not indicated on the box ! moreover…

Good value for money, I recommend.

Pros: Good optical zoom, image stabilization, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, fast and accurate focusing, it is possible to record video in FullHD. Also, there is the possibility of wireless synchronization with a smartphone using a special application available from Google Play. Has cons: Weight, but it's a matter of habit. Excessively strong noise reduction in low light and maximum zoom. There are no manual settings for shutter speed and aperture, but I hardly needed them. There is no HDR mode.

Zoom focus requires operation

Focus problems when zooming can sometimes make the zoom almost unusable. The lack of manual control of shutter speed, focus or anything else. I love to shoot time lapse waterfalls and stuff like that which is totally impossible with this camera. However, I can't find a camera in this price range that has this feature, so I can't necessarily deduct a star for it. But I'm feeling a little generous just docking because of a scaling issue. While shooting the video, I zoomed in on the waterfall…

Pros
  • Remote control via smartphone or tablet. Included in delivery: 4 alkaline batteries LR6/L40 AA, USB cable UC E16, strap CP21, lens cap LC CP31
Cons
  • Weight

Don't waste money.

After 5 weeks of waiting after ordering this camera, it finally arrived. Great camera, easy to use and takes great pictures. I would give it 5 stars except that after a little over 2 years of ownership it won't turn on. The guarantee is no longer valid. After scouring the internet I've done all the troubleshooting steps but it still won't turn on. This turned out to be a very common problem. I contacted Nikon and they referred me to their repair service. $163.00 is the estimated cost of repair…

Pros
  • Iso 6400, 7.4fps burst
Cons
  • Good but not great

Great travel camera

I bought this camera because my husband and I were taking a trip to the Sleeping Bear Dunes in Michigan and I needed a camera that could take better pictures than my phone picks up phone, and will also have a great zoom. After spending hours on the internet reading reviews I decided on this camera and I'm SO glad I did. My main criteria were a camera with high image quality, large zoom and ease of use. The camera is easy to use, requires minimal setup (which you can connect to your phone and do

Pros
  • Nikkor f/3.0 6.5mm ED lens
Cons
  • Minority

После длительного опыта работы с этой камерой (и парой более дешевых моделей COOLPIX) я отказались by him. I thought my problems with this were due to my lack of experience in photography. Now I see that the problem is in the camera. My photos usually get grainy and blurry. Sometimes I can only take good photos when the ambient light is perfect. A clerk at a camera store in New York explained to me what the problem was. This camera does not have a good processor. As a result, it can't focus…

Pros
  • 16-мегапиксельная 1/2,3-дюймовая CMOS-матрица BSI
Cons
  • Некоторые ошибки

Worst software ever written Looks like something from the 90's

The camera itself is fine but the Snap Bridge software that came with the camera is rubbish. I have had several Nikon cameras and have been very happy with them. They are older and require removing a cable or the SD card to transfer photos. I bought this camera specifically for the Snap Bridge software to be able to transfer photos. One minute it works, the next it doesn't. Removed reinstalled. I read on forums that other customers had the same issues and just gave up and started connecting the

Pros
  • 22.5900 millimeters (35mm equivalent)
Cons
  • Expensive

Great little camera for the price!

I'm new to photography but I needed an inexpensive camera to take photos for food blogs or events. After a lot of research, I settled on this one because it fit my $300 budget. The camera is pretty basic and includes a charging cable and batteries. The basic memory is sufficient for approx. 4 photos, so a memory card is absolutely necessary. It takes good photos in natural light and doesn't work well in low light without a flash. However, I can easily lighten photos with editing software (I…

Pros
  • 40x optical zoom lens, 80x dynamic zoom
Cons
  • Expensive
