Hi,
Another new camera now in stock,
NIKON COOLPIX L23 SILVER
SPECIAL OFFER ONLY £69.95
INCLUDING NIKON CAMERA CASE, BATTERIES
& 2 YEAR WARRANTY
This is probably one of the easiest cameras I have ever used. It would be ideal for the complete beginner on a smaller budget. It has an impressive list of functions that I would normally expect to find in a camera for twice the value. I particularly like the inclusion of ‘easy auto mode, I have tested this and it works. I also like the fact that you can override the flash, bracket your exposures if required and take close up images (macro). All of these can be selected by the press of a button on the rear of the camera. You have a clearly labelled ‘flat joystick’ to allow you to make these changes, if you want to or you can simply turn the camera on start taking pictures and let it do the rest for you. The test pictures I have done appear to be sharp and correctly metered. It was a gloomy overcast day when I tested the camera. I think it should be very capable of printing ‘A4’ size images. The focusing appeared to work well and was accurate. I also like the inclusion of a 5x optical zoom, normally you would be lucky to get 3x in the price bracket. The screen was bright, clear and easy to see, perhaps not the sharpest I have seen but it does the job ok. The perfect camera for anyone just starting out in photography, the COOLPIX L23 boasts a host of automatic technology for perfectly effortless shooting.
Wherever you are and whatever you want to shoot, Easy Auto Mode optimizes all camera settings for superior results, making it simple to capture the shot you want.
The wide-angle 5x zoom lens lets you capture everything from sharp close-ups to stunning group photos with ease, and Nikon’s Smart Portrait System ensures perfect portraits every time. Compatible with AA-size batteries and boasting a slim body, it’s easy-to-power and easy-to-carry anywhere.
The COOLPIX L23 - A great way to start. Overall a great little camera that is sensibly priced and very easy to use. Put simply, it does what it says on the tin!
