Product Description
VR Electronic Image Stabilization takes camera movement data from a built-in angular velocity sensor and applies in-camera image processing to turn blurred images into beautifully clear results, on the spot or anytime later.Extended light sensitivity range of ISO 50 to ISO 2000 and the new image-processing engine's ability to preserve high image quality at high ISO settings provide new opportunities to shoot more effectively in lower lighting conditions.That's plenty of sharp resolution to capture the finest details, crop creatively and produce beautiful enlargements. Optimizing performance and color reproduction is an advanced new image processing engine. And the quality optics of a 28-102mm Zoom-Nikkor lens (35mm equivalent) maximizes compositional freedom.

 compact, great pictures, easy to use, perfect! December 26, 2008

I was looking for a camera that was:
* compact - can easily fit into my purse without taking up too much room
* good quality - Nikon is great brand, 8.1 pix is good enough for weekend photo gals like myself I'm not a pro by any means
* easy to use - select the atmosphere or auto and shoot a photo, plug and play ease, and software is user-friendly.
* good size display - the visual display on the back is great for its size.
So far, this camera takes great photos and the software that comes with it is very fast. I love that! Everything I was looking for!
Amazing camera December 6, 2008

This is an excellent camera. I have used several Kodak, 2 Canon, and 1 Fujifilm and find this camera the best. The indoor pictures are unprecedented, much better than the mid level Canon S3 IS. Absolute no blurry pictures. Absolutely recommended.
1. Compact,
2. very less blurry,
3. Best picture quality among the $400 price
4. Lens is small, but exceptionally sharp.

Nikon Coolpix P50 8.1MP Digital Camera with 3.6x Wide Angle Optical Zoom
I have owned the Nikon coolpix for almost a year and for a person who is not technologically saavy I have anjoyed this product and find it to be great camera. I like that it is light weight and at the same time it has a very durable exterior, which is great for a accident prone person like myself who has broken cameras in the past. I really like the editing program the camera came with and have been able to fix pictures I had problems taking. I do have a few problems with the product. I don't really like how it isn't equipped with a rechargeable battery. Alkaline batteries are inexpensive but if you are a heavy camera user like myself the batteries will die fast, so keep extra on hand. I also had a difficult time using the camera at night, my pictures came out blurry, but that just took some practice and working with the camera. Overall it is a very nice product and I would reccommend the Nixon Coolpix p50 for first time digital camera users or people who don't want a complicated camera like myself. The price is right and you won't reget this purchase!
great camera but larger September 2, 2008

I have had 2 other nikon cool pic cameras, this one is clearly the most advanced to date. Down side: little bit large. Seriously larger. smaller than my wife's nikon SLR but larger than the older nikon point and shoot. The wide angle lense is truly the bomb. Almost no point and shoot digitals offer wide angle. Very handy. Shots are good. Video is only good close up. comfortable, good value, decent camera.

[[ASIN:B0017K6HGI Nikon Coolpix P50 - Wide Angle Zoom 3.6 - 28MM-102MM
8.1 Mega Pixels - Plus Nikon Two Year Extended Warranty - Nikon Case -
Plus 1 GB SD Memory Card]]
I needed a decent point and shoot with a wider angle lens for interior
photos and purchased this one.
It does a great job here with very good clarity. The wider angle allows
more area in a photo where needed. I use this function mainly in
real estate for interior room photos. It is not quite as wide as
more expensive models but very adequate for my needs right now.
The photos generally require very little or no enhancement once
loaded onto a PC.
Reading the manual and some experimenting with some settings helps much
to get the best use of this camera. The auto setting by itself usually
works fine though for most shots. The video mode does a good job with
the 640 x 480 mode.
I also have a Fuji A900 which is a great camera and use it as well
but it does not have the wider angle lens and has a lesser video
resolution.
The only thing I would have liked is having the larger USB plug to
the camera or same one the Fuji has. This is really minor though.
Using std. rechargeable AA batteries can get 125 or more full
resolution shots on a charged pair.
