I bought these cameras for my teeenage granddaughters and they both love them. Easy to use, lightweight, and they take great pictures! see less

Pros- Excellent pictures ... see more

Pros- Excellent pictures, excellent resolution, turns on quickly. Cons- Need to learn Coolpix/ Nikon interface well to take excellent pictures, clumsy touchscreen, takes long time to shut off. Video record button is in clumsy place. I bought this camera out of haste in a surprise trip abroad. This is my second Coolpix, but I found they changed some items on the "Scene" menu and added a few new items. The auto-brightness and auto-focus works well once you learn how to interact with the camera and the touchscreen interface. The camera is not intuitive to random people that you hand the camera to take your picture. Thus you may have pictures in which the foreground is not as bright as the background. As this is a 16MP camera, you should have an appropriate SD card. I found a 4GB too small as the average picture size is 6.5MB. The minimum SD card is 8GB or better. see less

My boyfriend bought me a Nikon Coolpix S4200 for Christmas and I've used it 2 times since Christmas of 2012 and I am very disappointed in the camera. The pictures turn out either very bright or very dark and adjusting the flash doesn't make a difference. The camera is also very slow, after taking a picture you need to wait about 15 to 20 seconds before you can take another one. If you try to look at the picture or take another one it says, "please wait for camera to finish recording." The thing is I wasn't even on recording mode. I have tried changing the settings and that has not made a difference. We are going to return this camera and buy a Canon Powershot and hopefully that camera will be better. I would not recommend buying this camera. see less

This is a great camera for kids or for using around water or where the item may be dropped. We got this for my 5 year old and he loves it. It takes decent pictures if there is good lighting or if you have a steady hand. The best features of this camera are that it is waterproof, shock resistant, my 2 year old dropped it down the stairs on to wood floor and it was fine, and that the lens is in the center of the camera so fingers don't end up in the picture. Battery life is decent. One reviewer said it only has 10 MB of internal memory, I didn't even know it had internal memory, but like almost every other camera in the world you can put an SD card in it and it will hold thousands of pictures and you won't eat through batteries transferring pictures if you have an SD card slot on your computer. In general the kids like it and they can actually take some pictures you could have printed out. see less

My #1 use of this camera ... see more

My #1 use of this camera will be strictly for in-the-water, outdoors. I knew before buying this camera that I wouldn't be able to toggle the flash which would drive me crazy. However, non-flash pictures still turn out crisp underwater even on overcast days. The AA batteries option seems inconvenient but I have rechargeable batteries so I'm not concerned with constantly throwing batteries away. The camera's date and time do reset whenever you replace the batteries but that's not a big issue for me. The cherry on top for me was the floating strap. I've taken this camera to the pool a few times and the strap has saved me from diving to the bottom of the pool whenever I let go of the camera. I'm very pleased with my purchase because my biggest requirement and expectation is for the camera to work underwater. If you are planning to buy this camera to take normal pictures, I suggest you shop for something else, because you are mostly paying for the waterproof capability of this camera. see less

The picture quality is awful unless you use the flash. The flash rarely works since you can only set it to auto or off and it has to be almost pitch black for it to trigger. When the flash does come on it flashes 3 times on a delay which always leaves someone blinking. The wrist strap and case are cute ideas but the quality just isn't worth it. see less

I had originally wanted the D90 for what seemed like ages, but while researching to finally buy, I came across this camera. It had everything I loved about the D90, plus some more capability like higher resolution, option for wifi transfer, etc and the price is a lot less! The camera has been great so far, couldn't be happier. see less

I was looking at Canons, then I saw this camera. I knew nothing about Nikons when I purchased it. I am so happy I bought it. This camera is amazing. I actually purchased elsewhere, seeing now Target has a lower price and an available warranty ... I would highly recommend this camera. The battery that came with it lasts a long time and the pictures are amazing. Good Luck see less

Great little case - the pink color is a perfect match for the pink camera, and it looks and feels quite sturdy. The leather strap adds a nice little touch to an already adorable camera!!! see less

I bought this camera last week on my way to the Coast for vacation. I'd had another camera in mind but for the price and camera capabilities, this one ended up being the better deal. First off, the flash on my camera works perfectly. Whatever problems the other customer had, she either didn't know how to work it properly or the camera had a factory flaw. There are a TON of options for such a simple little point and shoot camera. There's 3D picture mode, a beach scene mode, panoramic shots and all the other standards from night shots to portraits and even a smart shot mode which takes AMAZING pictures. Beats auto mode hands down. The pictures it takes are solid once you figure out what mode works best for each scene. The only issue I have so far is I can't find the speed shutter mode, to take multiple pictures at once, course that might just be the sports mode and I haven't caught on yet ha-ha. Overall, for the price and quality, this camera is well worth what you pay for it. see less

I bought this camera a week ago thinking it was going to be a great camera for the price. Was I ever wrong! I've tried rechargeable and lithium batteries JUST tested the camera around the house, and both types are at half life in no time at all. I'm thinking this has GOT to be a defect, because NO camera should burn through batteries THAT fast! Also, any sort of movement in the photo, and there's a huge blur. I found the design to be putsy and not user friendly. I'm planning to return this today for a different model. If I'm denied the exchange for any reason I will be HIGHLY disappointed in Target, as I do not see myself being happy with this model or even using it. see less

I bought a camera that was on sale for [$] my husband siad he wanted to buy me a nicer one so he bought me this one because the Target employee in the electronics section recommended it. This camera is HORRIBLE. The only pictures that come out decent are the ones that are in daylight. low light pictures all come out blurry. super slow shutter speed so you lose the shot you're trying to take. We took it to Disneyland. big mistake! see less

I went into my local Target yesterday to buy the D5100 instead of this model, but they were out. I was a bit disappointed at first, but that ended when I took my first picture. Wow! With my first go, I decided to see what the automatic functions could do. Not bad, honestly, but not great, either. Definitely good enough to put in a photo album. Being my first DSLR, I wanted more from it, so went full manual. Stunning! My shots look professional. Sure, this is a learning curve, so for every thirty shots or so, I get one good one. It's not a camera problem, but a "me" problem. Once I get used to the functions of this camera, I KNOW that these shots will be perfect 100 percent of the time. If you decide to go for this model, you will not have any regrets. Get used to the manual functions because it is worth it, ten fold. Excellent buy. So happy! see less

I bought this camera a week ago with my 20percent off code for target screwing up my baby registry. I've been hesitant on spending this much money on a camera for several years now but with a baby girl on the way, i wanted an awesome camera i could take a million pictures with. This camera is worth every penny. although you need to practice and read the manual to take amazing pictures, so far I've been taking pictures of anything and everything and I have been impressed. I am very satisfied with my purchase. see less
