Not very durable!
Rating:2 out of 5 stars
Takes great pictures. But the slightest little mishap will cause a “lens error” and the repair costs as much or more than the camera. After owning it for 7 mos., it was on a dresser, @ 3 ft off the ground, and fell onto a carpeted bedroom floor. Never worked again. Several people online experienced the same problem. Nikon won’t cover it under warranty either. Needless to say, my replacement camera will not be a Nikon

I wish I’d found this a year ago!

For under $100, I believe this is the best camera you can get. I bought it replace a horrible camera that I’d had for about a year. I only paid a few dollars more for this one and it’s twice the camera.

It’s easy to use and takes wonderful photos even in auto mode. It also has many different settings and adjustments to get the perfect photo every time. In addition to taking beautiful photos, the L19 takes great video with sound, the quality is as good if not better than the flip camcorders.

I was a little concerned about batterie life when I first recieved it, the included batteries only lasted a day but I replaced them with better ones and they’ve lasted well.

As a long time fan of the Nikon brand, I feel this is a worthy addition to their product line. I would highly recommend it to anyone that is just starting out with digital photography or wants a fairly small and easy camera to shoot quick snapshots.

Good value
Rating:4 out of 5 stars
Purchased as a gift to replace step-daughter’s Sony which lasted for 5 years. She takes a great quantity of pictures and complained about it not having a retractable, automatic lens cover and coming without a case. Also says batteries don’t last long enough in comparison to her original Sony camera. Please don’t let this disuade you from purchasing the camera because I’m sure her disliking it had more to do with the price tag than anything else (not expensive = not worthy in her world). Her father thought it was a great value and it’s definitely nicer than ours!

Poor quality pictures
Rating:3 out of 5 stars
I returned this camera because the picture quality was poor. Pictures were bright red despite the adjustment. Could be that this particular camera is just a bad one. Amazon refunded me without any questions asked. I will search dor another brand.

COOLPIX L-19 OK
Rating:4 out of 5 stars
The L-19 is a capable little camera. Occasionally I have to supply pix with the copy I write and use Nikon cameras’ exclusively. With the 8mp, one can actually

print an 8×10 and have it NOT look ridiculous. The new lcd screen is twice as large as previous models and the software is very user friendly. As long as you are NOT paying $200 for it, it’s a great little shooter. I just spent 5 days in the desert with it and it held up just fine.- EM

Lens jammed
Rating:2 out of 5 stars
Worked okay for about a year and a half until the lens jammed after switching from wide angle to telephoto. This camera was a 2007 generation Coolpix 5.1 mp 3x zoom. From other comments here, it appears that Nikon hasn’t addressed this problem

Handy coolpix
Rating:4 out of 5 stars
I have always been a Nikon fan. This is the latest one i bought for my mother in law. Its compact but easy to use, different scene modes, edit pictures, perfect for first time users . I would have preferred to get a rechargeable battery with the set but its been a really great gift for her.

excelent buy
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
the quality of the pics are decent, the camera performs fairly well under low light conditions, which is a good thing. I was looking for a AA battery camera, and SD memory slot, and this is the best camera I could find with those two coniditons for a reasonable price.
