Frustrated owner needing service.......2007-02-16

I love my Nikon Coolpix 5900 however, the lens failed in less than one year. Service took 6 weeks to repair. The lens failed again after less than 10 days after repair. Why is the lens failing to open again? I absolutely hate the inconvenience of returning this item again for service although I do have a paid plan for it. Why can't warranty be fast, local and competent?

Mixed feeling.......2006-12-13

Takes great pics ...BUT with a tripod and BRIGHT light...not too handy really....

Great images.....poor warranty.......2006-08-11

I bought this camera just under 12 months ago and recently the battery cover door would not stay closed. I sent it into Nikon along with my proof of purchase and about a week later got a letter saying it would not be covered under warranty. The repair charge with shipping and tax would be $115.22.

I am the only person that uses this camera and it was never dropped or abused. Battery was only taken in and out maybe 4 or 6 times over the time I had it.

For this reason I would never buy another Nikon product again. Next digital camera will charge without removing battery.

Camera takes GREAT pictures, but can't do business with a firm that is very difficult to get ahold of and does not honor their warranty.

Bye Bye Nikon.

One Powerful Mini.......2006-03-10

This review is for the Coolpix 5900 with 5MP.
You will not be displeased with this camera if you are in the
market for a compact digital camera. This little baby lies
comfortably in your pocket until you want it and rarely fails
to deliver, no matter what lighting obstacles you throw in it's
path. The footprint is amazingly small for a 5MP and you'll be
amazed at the functionality. I found the video/movie feature to
be a real useful tool that surprises most people with the great
clarity and utterly blown-away at night shots in poor light.
Think of Las Vegas lights on the strip, or a crowd of people
in thin night light. This camera handled it all. The SD card
is easy to access, and I recommend a 1GB size so you can take
your time with movies. Otherwise a 512MB card will give you
about 300 photos. But I warn you, you will be bitten by the
movie bug and want to use this more and more (provided you have
disk space or burn the excess to DVDs). I also recommend the
San Disk Ultra II SD cards for fast recovery speeds, so you
don't have to wait for each shot to record before going to the
next shot (this is 5 MP and that's a lot of pixals to store).
The roll on the side of the body enables you to keep a tight
grip on it with one hand shots- a feature many small cameras
lacked. The battery life is exceptional, but as always, buy a
backup for travel. The hit of one star was for the frustratingly small on/off button. I know they designed it so that it won't accidentally turn on in your pocket, but my fat finger is not the best tool.... The 2 inch LCD is not protected like others too, but so far seems pretty tough, rolling around in my pocket with sunglasses and other things that so far have not scratched it.

If it breaks, it's your fault!.......2006-03-08

I was very disappointed in Nikon's service. This camera has a 2in LCD display that apparently is very fragile. When I returned for service, Nikon claimed I dropped it... which I didn't! I was very careful in handling this camera, but the fragile LCD still broke. To be blamed by the manufacturer was really disappointing. They offered to repair it for $210, nearly the price of a new camera.

I will NEVER by a Nikon product again. If they are going to sell such a fragile product, they should at least include a hard case for it.

Nikon camera.......2006-08-13

This is an awesome camera. If you want a good digital camera for an even better price, this is the camera for you. It takes great pictures. It hardly ever needs to be charged thanks to the lithium battery and it is really easy to use. Nikon is a great brand for cameras and you cannot beat the price for this camera!
