This is a great little point and shoot. I was looking for a second camera to photograph the very realistic dolls that I draw and sell. I used Coolpix S4000 and got good results but decided to try another 20MP Nikon. It was awful - all the photos were blurry so I sent them back within 24 hours of receiving them. I went back to the S4000 and have no regrets at all. I have a different color than my first one to tell them apart (personal photos vs photos for sale of the dolls). There are many different settings for shooting outdoors, portraits, macro, landscape, etc. I leave both on auto flash, and the doll's camera stays on macro most of the time, for close-ups of nails and eyes - if I crop them, they lose not their sharpness. I have used the self-timer when I wanted to be in a photo (family shots) with great success. I've taken a lot of photos with 35mm SLRs in the past, and while I still love those photos, the photos from it definitely suit my needs - be it family photos, outdoor photos, museum trips, etc. Conclusion A: It's a good enough to get another one 3 years after the first one.
